Being able to visualize data is a necessary skill for any job that involves working with data. You can visualize your data using a number of different third-party modules that are available for Python. Matplotlib and its submodule pyplot are two of the most widely used plotting modules. The latter is commonly known to by its alias, plt. Matplotlib gives you access to a very flexible tool known as plt.scatter(), which enables you to generate scatter plots that range in complexity from simple to advanced. You will acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to:
-
Create a
scatter plot
using
plt.scatter()
-
Use the required and optional
input parameters
-
Customize scatter plots for
basic and more advanced plots
-
Represent
more than two dimensions
on a scatter plot
