Plotting using Plotly

Plotly is an interesting mix. It is a subscription website that provides significant data analysis graphing functionality. You can use the free version of the software, but you still need to log in with credentials to use it. The graphics functions are available in a variety of languages from Node.js to Python and the like.

Further, the graphics generated are available in Plotly and in your local notebook. If you mark the graphic as public, then you can access it from the notebook, just like any other graphic over the internet. Similarly, as a web graphic, you can select from the display and save locally as needed.

In this example, we use the voting histogram again, but using Plotly's capabilities.

The script becomes the following:

import plotly
import plotly.graph_objs as go
import plotly.plotly as py
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
