Overview of this book

<p>Effective visualization can help you get better insights from your data, and help you make better and more informed business decisions.</p> <p>This video starts by showing you how to set up matplotlib and other Python libraries that are required for most parts of the course, before moving on to discuss various widely used diagrams and charts such as Gantt Charts. As you will go through the course, you will get to know about various 3D diagrams and animations. As maps are irreplaceable to display geo-spatial data, this course will show you how to build them. In the last section, we’ll take you on a thorough walkthrough of incorporating matplotlib into various environments and how to create Gantt charts using Python.</p> <p>With practical, precise, and reproducible videos, you will get a better understanding of the data visualization concepts, how to apply them, and how you can overcome any challenge while implementing them.</p> <h1>Style and Approach</h1> <p>This course follows a step-by-step, recipe-based approach so you understand various aspects of data visualization. The topics are explained sequentially through a code snippet and the resulting visualization.</p>

Drawing Scatter Plots with Colored Markers
If you have two variables and want to spot the correlation between those, a scatter plot may be the solution to spot patterns. This type of plot is also very useful as a start for more advanced visualizations of multidimensional data. Let's see how to create a scatter plot. - Generate x values - Create random as well as co-related measurements - Create a scatterplot using parameters like color, marker, edgecolors and labels
