How can I transition from Matplotlib to Seaborn for data visualization?

Transitioning from Matplotlib to Seaborn is quite straightforward! Seaborn is built on top of Matplotlib and provides a higher-level interface for drawing attractive statistical graphics. You can start by installing Seaborn using pip install seaborn.

What are the main advantages of using Seaborn over Matplotlib?

Seaborn simplifies the process of creating complex visualizations with less code. It also comes with built-in themes and color palettes, making it easier to create aesthetically pleasing graphics.

Can you show me a simple example of a Seaborn plot?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import seaborn as sns
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

df = sns.load_dataset('tips')
sns.scatterplot(data=df, x='total_bill', y='tip')
plt.show()
``` This code creates a scatter plot of total bills versus tips.

How do I customize the aesthetics of a Seaborn plot?

You can customize Seaborn plots using the set_style() and set_palette() functions. For example, sns.set_style('whitegrid') adds a grid background, and sns.set_palette('pastel') changes the color palette.
