Summary

In this chapter, we discussed visualizing data with Python by plotting. We used matplotlib, pandas, and Plot.ly. We covered box plots, scatter plots, bubble charts, logarithmic plots, autocorrelation plots, lag plots, three-dimensional plots, legends, and annotations.

Logarithmic plots (or log plots) are plots that use a logarithmic scale. The semi-log plots use linear scaling on one axis and logarithmic scaling on the other axis. Scatter plots plot two variables against each other. A bubble chart is a special type of scatter plot. In a bubble chart, the value of a third variable is relatively represented by the size of the bubble surrounding a data point. Autocorrelation plots graph autocorrelations of time series data for different lags. ...
