Subset time series data
When plotting time series data, you may occasionally want to visualize only a subset of the data. The pandas library provides powerful indexing and subsetting methods that allow you to extract specific portions of a DataFrame. For example, you can subset all the data between 1950 and 1960 in the discoveries DataFrame by specifying the following date range:
subset_data = discoveries['1950-01-01':'1960-01-01']
Note: Subsetting your data this way is only possible if the index of your DataFrame contains dates of the datetime type. Failing that, the pandas library will return an error message.
