Plotting with matplotlib

Matplotlib is verbose but total. Learn the figure and axes model once and every other plotting library makes more sense.

This lesson sits in Visualising Data, part of Python for Data Work. It assumes what came before it and leads directly into the next lesson in the module.

In this lesson you will

  • Work with the figure and axes objects
  • Plot lines, bars, and scatter charts
  • Label axes and export at the right resolution
