Visualizing using Circos plots
Circos plots are a rational, non-cluttered way of visualizing graph data, in which nodes are ordered around the circumference in some fashion, and the edges are drawn within the circle that results, giving a beautiful as well as informative visualization about the structure of the network.
In this exercise, you'll continue getting practice with the nxviz API, this time with the circos
plot. matplotlib.pyplot
has been imported for you as plt
.
