The Data Visualization Workshop will guide you through the world of data visualization and help you to unlock simple secrets for transforming data into meaningful visuals with the help of exciting exercises and activities. Starting with an introduction to data visualization, this book shows you how to first prepare raw data for visualization using NumPy and pandas operations.

I am a Data Scientist, and as much as modeling is important, data visualization is very crucial too. It is very important to communicate a story through the data. I have been working with various open source visualization tools, and mostly find myself looking at the documentation to understand the use. After giving a read to "The Data Visualization Workshop by Mario and Tim, I have got a sense of instantaneously knowing which plot with be the best to choose for a particular type of data. This book is an excellent resource to have if you are a Data Scientist and want to leverage the power of data visualization at work.
