Time series data is data that is recorded. Visualizing this type of data helps clarify trends and illuminates relationships between data.

Plotting time-series data

Read data with a time index

Plot time-series data

Using a time index to zoom in

Plotting time-series with different variables

Plotting two variables

Defining a function that plots time-series data

Using a plotting function

Annotating time-series data

Annotating a plot of time-series data

Visualizations can be used to compare data in a quantitative manner. This chapter explains several methods for quantitative visualizations.

Quantitative comparisons: bar-charts

Bar chart

Stacked bar chart

Quantitative comparisons: histograms

Creating histograms

Statistical plotting

Adding error-bars to a bar chart

Adding error-bars to a plot

Creating boxplots

Quantitative comparisons: scatter plots

Visualizing data in plots and figures exposes the underlying patterns in the data and provides insights. Good visualizations also help you communicate your data to others, and are useful to data analysts and other consumers of the data. In this course, you will learn how to use Matplotlib, a powerful Python data visualization library. Matplotlib provides the building blocks to create rich visualizations of many different kinds of datasets. You will learn how to create visualizations for different kinds of data and how to customize, automate, and share these visualizations.
