temperature for two different cities over a 5-day period.
● days = [Link](["Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Thu", "Fri"])
● city_a_temp = [Link]([22, 24, 23, 26, 28])
● city_b_temp = [Link]([18, 19, 17, 20, 21])
Task: Write the Matplotlib code to plot both cities on the same line chart.
● Use a dashed line with circle markers for City A, and a solid line with square markers for
City B.
● Include a legend indicating which line belongs to which city.
● Add appropriate labels for the x-axis, y-axis, and a main title.
Q2: Scatter Plot (Multivariate Data) A climate researcher wants to visualize the
relationship between the Air Quality Index (AQI) and the number of reported respiratory
clinic visits, while also factoring in local humidity.
● aqi = [Link]([45, 120, 150, 60, 200, 300, 80, 110])
● clinic_visits = [Link]([10, 45, 60, 15, 80, 120, 25, 40])
● humidity = [Link]([30, 40, 60, 35, 70, 85, 45, 50])
Task: Write the code to generate a Scatter Plot mapping aqi to the x-axis and
clinic_visits to the y-axis.
● Use the humidity array to determine the color of the data points (using a colormap like
"viridis").
● Add a colorbar to the side of the plot to indicate the humidity scale.
● Set the transparency (alpha) of the points to 0.7.
Q3: Horizontal Bar Chart (Ranking Data) An environmental agency needs to present
the top 5 countries by renewable energy capacity (in Gigawatts).
● countries = [Link](["China", "USA", "Brazil", "India",
"Germany"])
● capacity_gw = [Link]([1100, 350, 180, 160, 140])
Task: Write the Matplotlib code to create a horizontal Bar Chart (barh).
● Color all bars "steelblue".
● Invert the y-axis so the country with the highest capacity appears at the top of the chart.
● Add the title "Top 5 Countries by Renewable Energy Capacity (GW)".
Q4: Pie Chart (Highlighting Proportions) You need to illustrate a city's power grid
energy mix to highlight its reliance on fossil fuels versus renewables.
● energy_sources = [Link](["Solar", "Wind", "Hydro", "Fossil
Fuels", "Nuclear"])
● percentages = [Link]([15, 10, 25, 40, 10])
Task: Write the Python code to draw a Pie Chart.
● Explode (pull out) the "Fossil Fuels" slice by 0.1 to emphasize it.
● Display the percentage values on the slices formatted to one decimal place (e.g.,
15.0%).
● Add a shadow effect to the pie chart for depth.
Q5: Histogram (Data Distribution) You have a large NumPy array representing the
daily rainfall (in mm) recorded over 365 days in a tropical region.
● Assume the data is loaded into a variable called daily_rainfall.
Task: Write the Matplotlib code to plot a Histogram showing the frequency distribution of the
rainfall data.
● Set the number of bins to 20.
● Outline the edges of the bins in "black" so they are easily distinguishable.
● Label the x-axis "Rainfall (mm)" and the y-axis "Number of Days".
