Introduction
In this lab, we will learn how to plot histograms with Matplotlib. We will generate data and plot a simple histogram, update histogram colors, plot a 2D histogram, and customize your histogram.
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.
