Describe time series data with boxplots
You should always explore the distribution of the variables, and because you are working with time series, you will explore their properties using boxplots and numerical summaries. As a reminder, you can plot data in a DataFrame as boxplots with the command:
df.boxplot(fontsize=6, vert=False)
Notice the introduction of the new parameter vert, which specifies whether to plot the boxplots horizontally or vertically.
