Plotting with glyphs

In this section, we will learn how to plot the following types of plot using glyphs:

  • Line plots: Line plots offer a way of visualizing the movements of points along the x-and y-axes in the form of a line. These plots are useful for performing time series analytics.
  • Bar plots: Bar plots are useful for indicating the count of each category of a particular column or field in your dataset.
  • Patch plots: Patch plots are used to indicate a region of points in a particular shade of color. Such plots can be used to distinguish different groups within the same dataset.
  • Scatter plots: Scatter plots are used to visualize the relationship between two variables and to indicate the strength of correlation between them.
