Exercise

Specify plot styles

The matplotlib library also comes with a number of built-in stylesheets that allow you to customize the appearance of your plots. To use a particular style sheet for your plots, you can use the command plt.style.use(your_stylesheet) where your_stylesheet is the name of the style sheet.

In order to see the list of available style sheets that can be used, you can use the command print(plt.style.available). For the rest of this course, we will use the awesome fivethirtyeight style sheet.
