  • Explain when to use:

    • ser.plot()

    • df.plot()

    • sns.lineplot()

    • plt.plot()

    • ax.plot()

  • Explain: figure, axis, grid, markers, ticks, labels, title (suptitle, too), spines. Naming convensions. ( axis.set_{name} where plot.{name})

  • Explain when do figures get reset in Replit (when do we need to do plt.cla() to clear current active axis, plt.clf() to clear entire current figure).

  • Explain how plt.gca() gets the current axis. So there is a concept of the current figure and current axis. plt.gcf() gets the current figure.
