Data Visualization with Python


Cheat Sheet : Plotting with Matplotlib using Pandas
Plot Type Description Pandas Function Example Visual

Shows trends and changes DataFrame.plot.line()


Line Plot df.plot(x=’year’, y=’sales’, kind=’line’)
over time DataFrame.plot(kind = ‘line’)

Displays data series as


DataFrame.plot.area()
Area Plot filled areas, showing the DataFrame.plot(kind = ‘area’)
df.plot(kind='area')
relationship between them

Displays bars representing


Series.plot.hist() s.plot(kind='hist', bins=10)
Histogram the data count in each Series.plot(kind = ‘hist’, bins = n) df[‘age’].plot(kind='hist', bins=10)
interval/bin

Displays data using DataFrame.plot.bar()


Bar Chart df.plot(kind='bar')
rectangular bars DataFrame.plot(kind = ‘bar’)

Displays data as a circular Series.plot.pie()


plot divided into slices, Series.plot(kind = ‘pie’) s.plot(kind='pie’,autopct='%1.1f%%')
Pie Chart
representing proportions or DataFrame.plot.pie(y, labels) df.plot(x='Category',y='Percentage',kind='pie')
percentages of a whole DataFrame.plot(kind = ‘pie’)

Displays the distribution of


DataFrame.plot.box()
Box Plot a dataset along with key DataFrame.plot(kind = ‘box’)
df_can.plot(kind='box')
statistical measures

Uses Cartesian coordinates


DataFrame.plot.scatter()
Scatter Plot to display values for two DataFrame.plot(x, y, kind = ‘scatter’)
df.plot(x='Height', y='Weight', kind='scatter')
variables

Cheat Sheet : Plotting directly with Matplotlib

Plot Type Description Matplotlib Function Example Visual

Display data series as filled plt.fill_between(x, y1, y2, color='blue',


Area Plot plt.fill_between()
areas alpha=0.5)

Displays bars representing


plt.hist(data, bins=10, color='orange',
Histogram the data count in each plt.hist()
edgecolor='black')
interval/bin

Displays data using plt.bar(x, height, color='green',


Bar Chart plt.bar()
rectangular bars width=0.5)

Displays data as a circular


plot divided into slices, plt.pie(sizes, labels=labels,
Pie Chart plt.pie()
representing proportions or colors=colors, explode=explode)
percentages of a whole

Displays the distribution of


Box Plot a dataset along with key plt.boxplot() plt.boxplot(data, notch=True)
statistical measures

Uses Cartesian coordinates


plt.scatter(x, y, color='purple',
Scatter Plot to display values for two plt.scatter()
marker='o', s=50)
variables

Creating multiple plots on fig, axes = plt.subplots(nrows=2,


Subplotting plt.subplots()
one figure ncols=2)

plt.title('Title')
Customizing plot: adding plt.xlabel('X Label')
Customization Various customization plt.ylabel('Y Label')
labels, title, legend, grid plt.legend()
plt.grid(True)
