plotly python


Plotly is a Python library for creating interactive data visualizations. It can be used to create a wide variety of charts, including line charts, bar charts, scatter plots, and more. In this example, I’ll show you how to create a simple line chart using Plotly in Python.

First, you’ll need to install the Plotly library if you haven’t already. You can do this using pip:

bashCopy codepip install plotly

Once you have Plotly installed, you can create a simple line chart like this:

pythonCopy codeimport plotly.express as px

# Sample data
x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
y = [10, 11, 12, 13, 14]

# Create a line chart
fig = px.line(x=x, y=y, title="Simple Line Chart")

# Show the chart
fig.show()

In this example:

  1. We import the plotly.express module, which provides a high-level interface for creating Plotly charts.
  2. We define some sample data in the x and y lists.
  3. We use px.line to create a line chart with the given data and set the chart’s title.
  4. Finally, we use fig.show() to display the chart.

You can customize your chart further by adding labels, legends, changing colors, and many other options. Plotly offers extensive documentation and examples to help you create a wide range of interactive visualizations
