Plotting Bars with Seaborn
Take a look at the file called results.csv. You’ll plot that data soon, but before you plot it, take a minute to understand the context behind that data, which is based on a hypothetical situat…

Understanding Aggregates
Seaborn can also calculate aggregate statistics for large datasets. To understand why this is helpful, we must first understand what an aggregate is. An aggregate statistic, or aggregate, is …

Modifying Error Bars
By default, Seaborn will place error bars on each bar when you use the barplot() function. Error bars are the small lines that extend above and below the top of each bar. Errors bars visually in…

Calculating Different Aggregates
In most cases, we’ll want to plot the mean of our data, but sometimes, we’ll want something different: * If our data has many outliers, we may want to plot the median. * If our data is categorica…
