Alternatives representations detector

pdcleaner.plots.alternatives.plot(self, cmap=None, not_displayed_color='red', nfirst=0, nlast=0, figsize=None)

plot a countplot of values frequency grouped by keys, with options to compact the graph

Parameters:

• cmap (palette name (Default = Default matplotlib's palette)) – Should be something that can be interpreted by seaborn’s color_palette()

• not_displayed_color (str, color name (Default = "red")) – Box color for the number of hidden values

• nfirst (int) – Number of top n values to display

• nlast (Bool (Default: True)) – Number of n last values to display

• figsize ((float, float) (Default: None)) – width and height of the figure.

Returns:

axs – matplotlib axes objects representing the plots

Return type:

matplotlib.axes._subplots.AxesSubplot

Raises:

• ValueError if nfirst or nlast is <0 –

• TypeError if nfirst or nlast is not an integer –

Examples

>>> series = pd.Series(['Linus Torvalds',
                           'Torvalds, Linus',
                           'Linus Torvalds',
                           'Bill Gates',
                           'Bill Gates',
                           'Steve Jobs',
                           ])
>>> detector = series.cleaner.detect.alternatives()
>>> detector.plot()

Display only the two most frequents

>>> detector.plot(nfirst=2)

Display only the least frequent

>>> detector.plot(nlast=1)
