Course Outline

  • Matplotlib: Introduction to one of the go to visualisation libraries for Python that integrates well with the prominently used Pandas package data structures.
  • Plot building: Create more complex plots built up of separate layers or multiple plot panels.
  • Seaborn: Seaborn is a very useful graphics package built on top of Matplotlib to aid in easy creation of beautiful statistical graphs.
  • Facetting: Create insight in data structure with easy creation of plot facets.
  • Plotly: Plotly is a very exciting graphics package which makes it trivial to add interactive elements, such as hover information, tooltips, zooming and even full animations, excellent for presenting your data in a digital format such as a web page or dashboard.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of the day, participants will be able to…

  • use a range of techniques for communicating their data insights
  • create beautiful, interactive graphics
  • compose complex visualisations as well as standard displays such as scatter plots, histograms, barcharts and boxplots and more.
