IT Skills     Software Design and Development     Python     Statistical Plots with Seaborn

The wealth of Python data visualization libraries makes it hard to decide the best choice for each use case. However, if you're looking for statistical plots that are easy to build and visually appealing, Seaborn is the obvious choice.


You'll begin this course by using Seaborn to construct simple univariate histograms and use kernel density estimation, or KDE, to visualize the probability distribution of your data. You'll then work with bivariate histograms and KDE curves.


Next, you'll use box plots to concisely represent the median and the inter-quartile range (IQR) and define outliers in data. You'll work with boxen plots, which are conceptually similar to box plots but employ percentile markers rather than whiskers. Finally, you'll use Violin plots to represent the entire probability density function, obtained via a KDE estimation, for your data.
