 Data Visualisation

  • Data analysis benefits from the visualisation of data. If a picture if worth a thousand words, complex data structures can be easier to understand and analyse using effective visualisation techniques. Communicating the results with non-technical users is also a challenge that visualisation techniques help to overcome. We'll showcase how to easily produce beautiful visualisations with matplotlib.
