📅 2023-09-23 — Session: Enhanced Data Visualization and Manipulation in Python
🕒 19:00–19:30
🏷️ Labels: Python, Data Visualization, Pandas, Matplotlib, Seaborn
📂 Project: Dev
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM
Session Goal
The session aimed to enhance data visualization techniques and manipulate data effectively using Python libraries such as Pandas, Matplotlib, and Seaborn.
Key Activities
- Data Manipulation: Inserted and updated DataFrame values, removed NaN entries, and recomputed derived metrics using Pandas.
- [[Data Visualization]]: Customized bar plots in Matplotlib and Seaborn, including adjusting bar widths and positions, and rendering bars as hollow for better visual distinction.
- Code Optimization: Modified the monthly payment structure to handle lists of payments and simulated debt payments with inflation adjustments.
Achievements
- Successfully updated DataFrames with new values and recalculated metrics.
- Enhanced bar plot visualizations with customized colors and hollow bars.
- Optimized payment handling code for better financial simulations.
Pending Tasks
- Further exploration of advanced visualization techniques in Seaborn.
- Additional optimization of data manipulation scripts for larger datasets.
