Lab Report: Data Visualization using

Matplotlib
Objective
The objective of this lab is to understand and implement basic data visualization techniques
using the matplotlib library in Python. We will create bar charts, histograms, line charts, and
scatterplots to visualize different types of data.

Theory
Data visualization is a crucial aspect of data analysis, allowing us to understand patterns, trends,
and relationships within data. matplotlib is a powerful Python library for creating static, animated,
and interactive visualizations. In this lab, we will focus on the following types of plots:

1. Bar Charts: Used to show how a quantity varies among discrete categories.
2. Histograms: Used to visualize the distribution of numerical data.
3. Line Charts: Ideal for showing trends over time or ordered categories.
4. Scatterplots: Used to visualize the relationship between two numerical variables.

Example Codes
1. Bar Chart

A bar chart is used to compare the number of Academy Awards won by different movies.
2. Histogram

A histogram is used to visualize the distribution of exam grades.

3. Line Chart

A line chart is used to show the bias-variance tradeoff in model complexity.


4. Scatterplot

A scatterplot is used to visualize the relationship between the number of friends and daily minutes spent
on a site.

DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION:


In this lab, we explored the fundamentals of data visualization using matplotlib, creating bar charts,
histograms, line charts, and scatterplots to represent different types of data. These visualizations allowed
us to effectively analyze patterns, trends, and relationships, such as comparing discrete categories,
understanding data distributions, and examining correlations between variables. The examples
demonstrated the importance of proper axis scaling and labeling to avoid misleading interpretations.
Overall, matplotlib proved to be a versatile tool for creating clear and informative visualizations, which
are essential for data analysis and decision-making.
