Exercise

Creating histograms

Histograms show the full distribution of a variable. In this exercise, we will display the distribution of weights of medalists in gymnastics and in rowing in the 2016 Olympic games for a comparison between them.

You will have two DataFrames to use. The first is called mens_rowing and includes information about the medalists in the men's rowing events. The other is called mens_gymnastics and includes information about medalists in all of the Gymnastics events.

Instructions

100 XP
  • Use the ax.hist method to add a histogram of the "Weight" column from the mens_rowing DataFrame.
  • Use ax.hist to add a histogram of "Weight" for the mens_gymnastics DataFrame.
  • Set the x-axis label to "Weight (kg)" and the y-axis label to "# of observations".
