This chapter shows you how to create your own data visualizations in Python, first using the matplotlib
library, and then directly from pandas
objects.
There are three notebooks that we will work through, each numbered according to when they will be used:
1-introducing_matplotlib.ipynb
: introduces you to plotting withmatplotlib
2-plotting_with_pandas.ipynb
: covers plotting withpandas
3-pandas_plotting_module.ipynb
: provides some exposure to additional plot types available inpandas.plotting
All the datasets necessary for the aforementioned notebooks, along with information on them, can be found in the data/
directory. The end-of-chapter exercises will use these datasets as well; solutions to the exercises can be found in the repository's solutions/ch_05/
directory.
