The document outlines an assignment focused on visualizing traffic patterns through daily and hourly trends using Python libraries such as pandas, matplotlib, and seaborn. It provides a step-by-step guide for setting up the environment, loading data, and executing various visualization techniques including histograms, bar plots, scatter plots, line plots, and pie charts. Each visualization method is explained with code snippets and descriptions of how to interpret the results.

DATA EXPLORATION AND VISUALIZATION

ASSIGNMENT 1

SUBMITTED BY,

PROBLEM STATEMENT:
Visualizing Traffic Patterns: Analyzing Daily and
Hourly Trends

EXECUTION:
To execute the above visualization programs, follow
these steps in a Jupyter Notebook environment (like
Google Colab) or in any Python IDE that supports
inline plotting, such as JupyterLab.
1.Set Up the Environment:
o Ensure you have pandas, matplotlib, and
seaborn installed. If not, install them by
running:
python
Copy code
!pip install pandas matplotlib seaborn
2.Load and Run the Code:
o Copy and paste each of the program code
snippets into individual cells (if using
Jupyter/Colab) or a single Python script file.
Adjust any file paths and column names as
needed.
o For the path to traffic.csv, you might need to
upload the file or provide the correct path.
3.Viewing Outputs:
o If using Google Colab or Jupyter Notebook,
each visualization will display inline after
executing the cell.
o In an IDE like VS Code, use %matplotlib
inline for inline display or plt.show() at the
end of each program.
Example in Google Colab:
1.Start with this line to upload your traffic.csv file:
python
Copy code
from google.colab import files
uploaded = files.upload()
EXPLANATION:
Histogram
Explanation:
1. plt.hist(data[y_column], bins=30) creates a
histogram with 30 bins (adjustable) for the
traffic_volume.
2. Color and edge styling improve readability,
while plt.xlabel and plt.ylabel label the axes.
Bar Plot
 Explanation:
1.data.groupby(x_column)[y_column].sum()
groups the data by each unique category and
calculates the total traffic_volume for each.
2.The .plot(kind='bar') creates a bar plot, with
custom color (skyblue) and edges (black).
3.Labels and rotation are added to make the chart
more readable.
Scatter Plot
Explanation:
1. plt.scatter(data[x_column], data[y_column])
creates a scatter plot of traffic_volume over
time_of_day.
2. The color blue and transparency alpha=0.5
make overlapping points easier to see.
Line Plot
Explanation:
1. plt.plot(data['time'], data[y_column]) plots
traffic volume data points connected by lines.
2. Markers (marker='o') show each point, while
linestyle='-' draws lines connecting them.
Pie Chart
Explanation:
1. data.groupby(category_column)
[value_column].sum() groups and aggregates
traffic_volume for each category.
