Data Visualization
Python libraries for creating static and interactive visualizations.
Comparison
| Library | Best For | Interactive | Learning Curve |
|---|---|---|---|
| Matplotlib | Publication, full control | No | Steep |
| Seaborn | Statistical, beautiful defaults | No | Easy |
| Plotly | Dashboards, web | Yes | Medium |
| Altair | Declarative, grammar of graphics | Yes | Easy |

Matplotlib
Foundation library - everything else builds on it.
Strengths: Complete control, publication quality, extensive customization Limitations: Verbose, dated API, learning curve
Key concepts:
- Figure: The entire canvas
- Axes: Individual plot area (a figure can have multiple)
- Object-oriented API:
fig, ax = plt.subplots()- preferred over pyplot
---
Seaborn
Statistical visualization with beautiful defaults.
Strengths: One-liners for complex plots, automatic aesthetics, works with pandas Limitations: Less control than matplotlib, limited customization
Key concepts:
- Statistical plots: histplot, boxplot, violinplot, regplot
- Categorical plots: boxplot, stripplot, swarmplot
- Matrix plots: heatmap, clustermap
- Built on matplotlib - use matplotlib for fine-tuning
---
Plotly
Interactive, web-ready visualizations.
Strengths: Interactivity (zoom, pan, hover), web embedding, Dash integration Limitations: Large bundle size, different mental model
Key concepts:
- Express API: High-level, similar to seaborn (
px.scatter()) - Graph Objects: Low-level, full control (
go.Figure()) - Output as HTML or embedded in web apps

Chart Type Selection
| Data Type | Chart |
|---|---|
| Trends over time | Line chart |
| Distribution | Histogram, box plot, violin |
| Comparison | Bar chart, grouped bar |
| Relationship | Scatter, bubble |
| Composition | Pie, stacked bar |
| Correlation | Heatmap |
| Part-to-whole | Treemap, sunburst |
---
Design Principles
- Data-ink ratio: Maximize data, minimize decoration
- Color: Use sparingly, consider colorblind users
- Labels: Always label axes, include units
- Legend: Only when necessary, prefer direct labeling
- Aspect ratio: ~1.6:1 (golden ratio) for most plots
