Intro to Seaborn Course (How To)

via Treehouse

Overview

The Seaborn module is a Python visualization library based on Matplotlib. It provides a higher-level, more convenient way to create common statistical plots and is well-suited for labeling and presenting statistical graphics. This course will help you get started with Seaborn by walking through the structure of its library, showing how to create key charts in Seaborn, and comparing the results with equivalent plots created with Matplotlib.

What you'll learn

  • Create charts with Python using Seaborn

Syllabus

Introduction to Seaborn

Seaborn is a data visualization library built on top of the plotting library, Matplotlib. It offers a rich set of high-level tools for creating statistical charts and plots. It's more convenient than Matplotlib for quickly visualizing data because it integrates well with Pandas Dataframe objects.
