EDA: Plotting earthquakes over time
Make a plot where the y-axis is the magnitude and the x-axis is the time of all earthquakes in Oklahoma between 1980 and the first half of 2017. Each dot in the plot represents a single earthquake. The time of the earthquakes, as decimal years, is stored in the NumPy array time
, and the magnitudes in the NumPy array mags
.

Instructions
- Plot the magnitude (
mags
) versus time (time
) usingplt.plot()
with keyword argumentsmarker='.'
andlinestyle='none'
. Also use the keyword argumentalpha=0.1
to make the points transparent to better visualize overlapping points. - Label the x-axis
'time (year)'
, y-axis'magnitude'
, and show the plot.
