Description
The data analytics is the process of finding insights of the data. It involves following important steps,

1. Collection of relevant data

2. Preprocessing and transforming data

3. Plotting data using different types of graphs

4. Understanding insight of the data

We can plot data in different types of plots using MatPlotLib library. Matplotlib is a cross-platform, data visualization and graphical plotting library for Python and its numerical extension NumPy. It along with python numpy package provides open source alternative to MATLAB. Developers can use matplotlib library for plotting graphs. Also they can use matplotlib’s APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) to embed plots in GUI based applications. In this course you are going to learn details of matplotlib library.
