Data Visualization
in Python
Data Visualization
• Data visualization is a field in data
analysis that deals with visual
representation of data. It graphically
plots data and is an effective way to
communicate inferences from data.
• visual summary of our data.
• With pictures, maps and graphs, the
human mind has an easier time
processing and understanding any given
data.
• significant role in the representation of
both small and large data sets
Data Visualization in
Python
• Python offers several plotting libraries, namely
Matplotlib, Seaborn and many other such data
visualization packages with different features
for creating informative, customized, and
appealing plots to present data in the most
simple and effective way.
• Python libraries for data visualization
• Matplotlib
• Seaborn
• inbuilt modules for plotting different graph
• While Matplotlib is used to embed graphs into
applications, Seaborn is primarily used for
statistical graphs.
Using
Matplotlib
module
• To import matplotlib
module in the
python program we
need to follow the
steps.
• Install
matplotlib
through the
command
prompt using
pip install
mtplotlib
Matplotlib and Seaborn
• Matplotlib and Seaborn are
python libraries that are used for data
visualization. They have inbuilt modules
for plotting different graphs.
• While Matplotlib is used to embed graphs
into applications, Seaborn is primarily
used for statistical graphs.
Matplotlib vs Seaborn
Matplotlib Seaborn
It is used for basic graph It is mainly used for statistics
plotting like line charts, bar visualization and can perform
graphs, etc. complex visualizations with
fewer commands.
It mainly works with datasets
It works with entire datasets.
and arrays.
Matplotlib acts productively with Seaborn is considerably more
data arrays and frames. It organized and functional than
regards the aces and figures as Matplotlib and treats the entire
objects. dataset as a solitary unit.
A Line Chart
• A Line chart is a graph that represents
information as a series of data points
connected by a straight line. In line
charts, each data point or marker is
plotted and connected with a line or
curve.

Bar Graphs
• A bar graph plots data with the help of
bars, which represent value on the y-axis
and category on the x-axis. Bar graphs
use bars with varying heights to show the
data which belongs to a specific category.

Histogram
• A Histogram is a bar representation of
data that varies over a range.
• It plots the height of the data belonging
to a range along the y-axis and the range
along the x-axis.
• Histograms are used to plot data over a
range of values. They use a bar
representation to show the data
belonging to each range.
