Python Exam Summary Notes

1. Data Visualization

Data visualization is the graphical representation of information using plots and charts to identify patterns and

insights. Libraries: matplotlib, seaborn.

2. Matplotlib Plotting

Matplotlib is used for plotting line charts, bar graphs, histograms, etc. Example: plt.plot(x, y), plt.show().

3. Seaborn Plots (Box, Violin, Heatmap)

Box Plot shows distribution; Violin Plot combines box and KDE; Heatmap displays matrix-like data.

4. Differences: Seaborn vs Matplotlib

Seaborn offers prettier, high-level plots. Matplotlib provides full control and flexibility.

5. Histogram in Matplotlib

Histogram shows distribution of data values in bins. Example: plt.hist(data, bins=5).

6. Violin Plot

Displays distribution and density of data. Example: sns.violinplot(x='day', y='total_bill', data=df).

7. Scatter Plot

Shows relation between 2 variables using dots. Example: plt.scatter(x, y).

8. Subplot in Matplotlib

Allows plotting multiple graphs in one figure using plt.subplot().

9. Bar Chart

Represents categorical data using bars. Example: plt.bar(categories, values).

10. Scatter Plot Customization


Python Exam Summary Notes

Customize with color, size, marker shape. Example: marker='*', color='red'.

11. Filling Missing Values

Use mean, median, or mode to fill nulls. Example: df.fillna(df.mean()).

12. Normalization & Standardization

Normalization rescales to [0,1], Standardization gives mean 0 and std 1.

13. Types of Joins

Inner, Left, Right, Outer joins combine datasets based on keys.

14. Normalization

Transforms features to scale between 0 and 1. Use MinMaxScaler.

15. Looping in Databases

Use cursor to fetch and loop through rows in SQLite/MySQL.

16. Categorical Data Preprocessing

Convert non-numeric data using label or one-hot encoding.

17. Merging & Joining

Combine datasets with pd.merge(). Can specify join types.

18. Categorical Data (101)

Types: Nominal (no order), Ordinal (ordered). Encode before ML.

19. Encoding Methods

Label, One-hot, and Ordinal Encoding transform text to numbers.
