Oefeninstructies

We have imported pandas as pd and matplotlib.pyplot as plt for you.

  • Use pd.read_csv() to import 'debt_unemployment.csv', creating a DateTimeIndex from the 'date' column using parse_dates and index_col, and assign the result to data. print() the .info() of the data.
  • Apply .interpolate() to data and assign this to interpolated, then inspect the result.
  • Plot interpolated with 'Unemployment' on the secondary_y axis.
