    Question

    Which of the following Python libraries is most

    appropriate for creating statistical visualizations such as violin plots and heatmaps?
    A NumPy Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B pandas Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Matplotlib Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Seaborn Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E SciPy Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Explanation: Seaborn is a powerful Python library built on Matplotlib, designed specifically for statistical visualization. It simplifies creating complex plots like violin plots, heatmaps, and pair plots, which are essential for understanding relationships, distributions, and correlations in data. Seaborn’s high-level interface and themes make it easier to create visually appealing plots suitable for data storytelling. For instance, a heatmap generated with Seaborn provides immediate insights into correlations between variables, a crucial aspect of exploratory data analysis. Option A: NumPy handles numerical operations and array processing but does not focus on visualization. Option B: While pandas is excellent for data manipulation, its plotting capabilities are basic. Option C: Matplotlib provides general-purpose plotting but lacks the simplicity and aesthetics of Seaborn for statistical plots. Option E: SciPy focuses on advanced scientific computation, not visualization.
