Pandas: Visualization Integration Exercise-10 with Solution

Write a Pandas program to create a grouped bar plot for multiple categories.

This exercise shows how to create a grouped bar plot for multiple categories using Pandas and Matplotlib.

Sample Solution :

Code :

import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Create a sample DataFrame
df = pd.DataFrame({
    'Category': ['A', 'B', 'C'],
    'Product_A': [50, 80, 30],
    'Product_B': [40, 60, 20]
})

# Create a bar plot for multiple products
df.plot(kind='bar', x='Category', y=['Product_A', 'Product_B'], figsize=(8, 5))

# Add a title
plt.title('Product A and B Sales by Category')

# Display the plot
plt.show()

Output:

Explanation:

• Created a DataFrame with sales data for two products across different categories.
• Used plot(kind='bar') to create a grouped bar plot showing both 'Product_A' and 'Product_B' sales by category.
• Added a title and displayed the plot.
