Formatting the HoverTool

Now you've built a plot with a HoverTool, it's time to go one step further by formatting how the information is presented.

The agency has asked for a plot of average minutes versus average points per game. They would like the HoverTool to identify the player's name, their conference, and their field goal percentage rounded to the nearest 2 decimal places.

Exercise instructions

Create TOOLTIPS, including the conference, and field_goal_perc columns as Conference, and Field Goal %, respectively.
Format the field_goal_perc element of TOOLTIPS to display to the nearest two decimal places.
Create the figure, labeling the x-axis as "Minutes" and the y-axis as "Points", including TOOLTIPS.
Add circle glyphs, with minutes on the x-axis against points, using source.

# Create TOOLTIPS
TOOLTIPS = [("Name", "@player"), 
            ("____", "____"), 
            ("____", "____")]

# Add TOOLTIPS to figure
fig = figure(x_axis_label="____", y_axis_label="____", tooltips=____)

# Add circle glyphs
fig.circle(x="____", y="____", source=____)
output_file(filename="formatted_hovertool.html")
