PLOTTING USING
MATPLOTLIB
PLOTTING USING MATPLOTLIB

 Matplotlib is a Python library used for


creating static, animated, and interactive
plots. The pyplot module, often imported
as plt, is central to Matplotlib and allows
easy plotting of figures.
PLOTTING USING MATPLOTLIB
Essential Guide To Plotting With Matplotlib:-
1. Installation:-

 Install with pip install matplotlib. To start plotting, import it using import
matplotlib.pyplot as plt.

2. Basic Plotting Function:-

 The plot() function in pyplot creates a figure (the overall window) containing
plots. A basic usage example: plt.plot(x, y) followed by plt.show() to display.

3. Components of a Plot:-

 Common elements include a title, axis labels, tick marks, and a legend (for multi-
data series plots).

4. Saving Figures:-

 The savefig() function saves a figure as an image file. Example:


plt.savefig('plot.png').

5. Different Plot Types:-

 Various plotting functions in pyplot include bar() for bar charts, scatter() for
scatter plots, hist() for histograms, and pie() for pie charts.
CUSTOMIZATION OF
PLOTS
CUSTOMIZATION OF PLOTS
Adding Titles and Labels:-

 Use title(), xlabel(), and ylabel()


to set the title and axis labels. For
example, plt.title("Temperature
vs Date").
CUSTOMIZATION OF PLOTS
Adding Grids and Legends:-

 The grid() function adds gridlines to the plot for better readability, while
legend() provides labels for different data series.
CUSTOMIZATION OF PLOTS
Markers:-

 You can add markers at data points with symbols like dots or stars. Examples
include 'o' for circles and '*' for stars.
CUSTOMIZATION OF PLOTS
Colors:-

 Change line or marker colors using named colors ('red', 'green') or shorthand ('r',
'g'). Example: plt.plot(x, y, color='blue').
CUSTOMIZATION OF PLOTS
Line Styles and Widths:-

 Customize line appearance with linestyle and linewidth. Styles include '-' (solid),
'--' (dashed), and linewidth specifies thickness.
CUSTOMIZATION OF PLOTS
Custom Ticks:-

 xticks() and yticks() allow customization of tick locations and labels, useful for
clarity on both x and y axes.
THE PANDAS PLOT FUNCTION
(PANDAS VISUALIZATION)
THE PANDAS PLOT FUNCTION (PANDAS VISUALIZATION)

 Pandas has a built-in .plot() method, providing an interface to Matplotlib for


quick plotting. This method is available in Series and DataFrames.
THE PANDAS PLOT FUNCTION (PANDAS VISUALIZATION)
Mastering Plotting in Pandas:-
1. Syntax:-

 The .plot() function is used directly on a


DataFrame or Series, such as df.plot(). This
leverages Matplotlib’s plot functionalities.
THE PANDAS PLOT FUNCTION (PANDAS VISUALIZATION)
Mastering Plotting in Pandas:-
2. Types of Plots in Pandas:-

 By specifying kind=, various plots can be created. Options include 'line' for line
plots, 'bar' for vertical bar charts, 'hist' for histograms, 'scatter' for scatter plots,
and more.
THE PANDAS PLOT FUNCTION (PANDAS VISUALIZATION)
Mastering Plotting in Pandas:-
3. Customizing with Pandas:-

 Additional Matplotlib functions can be used in conjunction with .plot(), including


title(), xlabel(), and ylabel().
THE PANDAS PLOT FUNCTION (PANDAS VISUALIZATION)
Mastering Plotting in Pandas:-
4. Example Usage:-

 For a CSV dataset, loading data and plotting could be as simple as:

5. Advanced Customization:-

 Similar to Matplotlib, Pandas plotting allows customizations like color changes,


linewidth, linestyle, and marker adjustments.
