Introduction
In this tutorial, we will learn how to create a histogram using Matplotlib library. A histogram is a graphical representation of the distribution of a dataset. It is an estimate of the probability distribution of a continuous variable. To create a histogram, we need to split the entire range of values into a series of intervals or bins, and then count how many values fall into each interval.
VM Tips
After the VM startup is done, click the top left corner to switch to the Notebook tab to access Jupyter Notebook for practice.
Sometimes, you may need to wait a few seconds for Jupyter Notebook to finish loading. The validation of operations cannot be automated because of limitations in Jupyter Notebook.
If you face issues during learning, feel free to ask Labby. Provide feedback after the session, and we will promptly resolve the problem for you.
