Hue and count plots
Let's continue exploring our dataset from students in secondary school by looking at a new variable. The "school"
column indicates the initials of which school the student attended - either "GP" or "MS".
In the last exercise, we created a scatter plot where the plot points were colored based on whether the student lived in an urban or rural area. How many students live in urban vs. rural areas, and does this vary based on what school the student attends? Let's make a count plot with subgroups to find out.
This exercise is part of the course
Introduction to Data Visualization with Seaborn
Exercise instructions
- Fill in the
palette_colors
dictionary to map the"Rural"
location value to the color"green"
and the"Urban"
location value to the color"blue"
. - Create a count plot with
"school"
on the x-axis using thestudent_data
DataFrame.- Add subgroups to the plot using
"location"
variable and use thepalette_colors
dictionary to make the location subgroups green and blue.
- Add subgroups to the plot using
Hands-on interactive exercise
Have a go at this exercise by completing this sample code.
# Import Matplotlib and Seaborn
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import seaborn as sns
# Create a dictionary mapping subgroup values to colors
palette_colors = {____: "green", ____: "blue"}
# Create a count plot of school with location subgroups
# Display plot
plt.show()
