1 Examples 1.4 of the textbook - Histogram


1.1 First let us import the necessary Python tools/libraries
[1]: import pandas as pd # for data manipulation
import numpy as np # for math operations
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt # for plotting
import seaborn as sns # for plotting

1.2 Now let us import the data (.csv file must be in the same folder as the
.pynb file)
[2]: gradrate = pd.read_csv("eg01-05gradrate.csv")
gradrate.head()

[2]: STATE PCTGRAD REGION


0 ALABAMA 89.3 S
1 ALASKA 78.2 W
2 ARIZONA 78.0 W
3 ARKANSAS 88.0 S
4 CALIFORNIA 82.7 W

Let us check how many data points each dataset contains


[3]: gradrate.shape[0] #number of rows (50 states + district of Columbia)

[3]: 51

[4]: gradrate.shape[1] #number of columns

[4]: 3

[5]: gradrate.shape

[5]: (51, 3)

1.3 Histogram of the percentage of on-time HS graduates in the US
[6]: plt.hist(gradrate["PCTGRAD"])
plt.show()

[7]: plt.hist(gradrate["PCTGRAD"],bins=9)
plt.show()

[8]: #help(plt.hist)

[9]: plt.hist(gradrate["PCTGRAD"],bins=[70,72.5,75,77.5,80,82.5,85,87.5,90,92.5])
plt.show()

[10]: plt.hist(gradrate["PCTGRAD"],bins=[70,72.5,75,77.5,80,82.5,85,87.5,90,92.5])
plt.ylabel("Number of States")
plt.xlabel("Percentage of on-time HS graduates")

[10]: Text(0.5, 0, 'Percentage of on-time HS graduates')

1.4 Using the library seaborn: sns.histplot: https://seaborn.pydata.org/generated/seaborn.h
[11]: import seaborn as sns

[12]: sns.histplot(data=gradrate, x="PCTGRAD",bins=[70,72.5,75,77.5,80,82.5,85,87.


,→5,90,92.5]) # it looks much better!

plt.show()

[13]: #help(sns.histplot)

[14]: sns.histplot(data=gradrate, x="PCTGRAD",binwidth=2.5,binrange=[70,92.5])


plt.ylabel("Number of States")
plt.xlabel("Percentage of on-time HS graduates")
plt.show()

[15]: p = sns.histplot(data=gradrate, x="PCTGRAD",binwidth=2.5,binrange=[70,92.5])
p.set(xlabel="Percentage of on-time HS graduates",
ylabel="Number of States",
title='Histogram')
plt.show()
