How do I learn core concepts and basic plots?

# Introduction to Seaborn API Seaborn simplifies stats viz on Pandas DataFrames. ## Key Concepts - **Figure-level** vs **Axes-level** functions - Long-form data preferred ## Basic Example ```python import seaborn as sns sns.set_theme() tips = sns.load_dataset('tips') sns.relplot(data=tips, x='total_bill', y='tip', hue='smoker') plt.show() ``` Explore [tutorial intro](https://seaborn.pydata.org/tutorial/introduction.html). 54

How do I visualize distributions and relationships?

# Distribution Plots ```python sns.displot(data=tips, x='total_bill', kde=True) sns.jointplot(data=tips, x='total_bill', y='tip') ``` # Relational Plots ```python sns.lineplot(data=tips, x='total_bill', y='tip', hue='day') sns.scatterplot(data=tips, x='total_bill', y='tip', hue='time') ``` Practice with [examples](https://seaborn.pydata.org/examples/index.html). 51

How do I categorical data and statistical fits?

# Categorical Plots ```python sns.catplot(data=tips, x='day', y='total_bill', kind='box') sns.violinplot(data=tips, x='day', y='total_bill') ``` # Regression ```python import seaborn as sns sns.regplot(data=tips, x='total_bill', y='tip') sns.lmplot(data=tips, x='total_bill', y='tip', col='time') ``` Add error bars with `sns.regplot(ci=95)`. See [stats tutorial](https://seaborn.pydata.org/tutorial/regression.html). 55

How do I customize aesthetics and build projects?

# Styling ```python sns.set_style('whitegrid') sns.set_palette('husl') sns.FacetGrid(tips, col='time', hue='smoker').map(sns.histplot, 'tip') ``` # Project: Multi-grid Analysis Load flights = sns.load_dataset('flights') Create heatmap, clustermap, pairplot.

Q: How do I install seaborn and set up environment?

# Install Seaborn and Prerequisites Seaborn requires Python 3.8+, NumPy, Pandas, and Matplotlib. ## Installation ```bash pip install seaborn ``` Or with stats extras: ```bash pip install seaborn[stats] ``` For Conda: ```bash conda install seaborn -c conda-forge ``` ## Verify Setup Open Jupyter Notebook or Python script: ```python import seaborn as sns import matplotlib.pyplot as plt sns.set_theme() tips = sns.load_dataset('tips') print(tips.head()) ``` Troubleshoot: Use `python -m pip install seaborn` if import fails. 52 53

Install Seaborn and Prerequisites

Seaborn requires Python 3.8+, NumPy, Pandas, and Matplotlib.

Installation

pip install seaborn

Or with stats extras:

pip install seaborn[stats]

For Conda:

conda install seaborn -c conda-forge

Verify Setup

Open Jupyter Notebook or Python script:

import seaborn as sns
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
sns.set_theme()
tips = sns.load_dataset('tips')
print(tips.head())

Troubleshoot: Use python -m pip install seaborn if import fails.

Why this step matters:

-Establishes a reliable workspace for experimentation
-Enables immediate hands-on plotting with real datasets

30-60 minutes

Python 3.8+, pip or conda, Jupyter Notebook, Pandas

$0

Definition of Done

•Seaborn imports without errors
•Load and display sample dataset like 'tips'

Common Mistakes to Avoid

❌ pip installs to wrong Python environment

→Run `python -m pip install seaborn`

❌ Missing dependencies like NumPy

→Install via `pip install numpy pandas matplotlib` first

❌ Import fails due to compiled libs

→Check traceback and install system libs per dependency docs
