我有一个pandas数据框,其中包含按照"帖子类型细分的Facebook帖子上的数据。"数据帧被称为" Posts_by_type"它包含#喜欢,#of shares和post的类型。有三种类型的帖子:赛车,娱乐和促销。
我想在matplotlib中创建一个boxplot,显示每种帖子的喜欢数量。
我的代码有效:
Posts_by_type.boxplot(column='Likes', by='Type', grid=True)
这会产生以下方框图:
但是,我还想在箱线图上标注中间值和胡须以及相应的数值。
这在matplotlib中是否可行?如果是这样,有人可以给我一些关于如何做的指示吗?
答案 0 :(得分:3)
一种解决方案,它还会添加框的值。
