Introduction To Data Visualization With Seaborn Chapter1

Seaborn is a Python data visualization library that builds on top of matplotlib. It provides a high-level interface for drawing attractive statistical graphics. The document introduces seaborn, discusses how it is useful for creating common plot types easily using pandas data structures. It provides examples of creating scatter plots and count plots using the seaborn and matplotlib libraries on sample datasets. The document also discusses how a third variable can be added to plots using hue to differentiate groups.

Example 1: Scatter plot
import seaborn as sns
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

height = [62, 64, 69, 75, 66,


68, 65, 71, 76, 73]
weight = [120, 136, 148, 175, 137,
165, 154, 172, 200, 187]

sns.scatterplot(x=height, y=weight)

plt.show()

Example 2: Create a count plot
import seaborn as sns
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

gender = ["Female", "Female",


"Female", "Female",
"Male", "Male", "Male",
"Male", "Male", "Male"]

sns.countplot(x=gender)

plt.show()

What is pandas?
Python library for data analysis

Easily read datasets from csv, txt, and other types of les

Datasets take the form of DataFrame objects

Working with DataFrames
import pandas as pd

df = pd.read_csv("masculinity.csv")

df.head()

participant_id age how_masculine how_important


0 1 18 - 34 Somewhat Somewhat
1 2 18 - 34 Somewhat Somewhat
2 3 18 - 34 Very Not very
3 4 18 - 34 Very Not very
4 5 18 - 34 Very Very
