Plot.ly
Plot.ly is a website currently in the beta stage, which provides online data visualization tools and a related Python library to be used on a user's machine. We can import and analyze data via the web interface or work entirely in a local environment and publish the end result on the Plot.ly website. Plots can be easily shared on the website within a team, allowing for collaboration, which is really the point of the website in the first place. In this section, we will give an example of how to plot a box plot with the Python API.
A box plot is a special way of visualizing a dataset using quartiles. If we split a sorted dataset into four equal parts, the first quartile will be the largest value of the part with the smallest numbers. The second quartile will be the value in the middle of the dataset, which is also called the median. The third quartile will be the value in the middle between the median and the highest value.
