How to subplot histogram using multiple columns with plotly?-CodePudding

So I have data that I transformed up to this point (pic below). How can I now subplot histograms that will show me the programming languages used per job? I tried with just 2 columns at first:

px.histogram(languages_job_title_grouped, x =['Python','SQL'], facet_col = 'Role', facet_col_wrap = 4,height = 1000)

But it didn't work - it plots histogram by job, but the bars are the same for every role (2nd picture below). How can I do it the right way?

CodePudding user response：

From the context of your question, it seems like you are looking for a bar plot instead.

I.e. If I understand correctly, you are starting from a dataframe equivalent to

and trying to plot

where the facets are the index, the x-axis is each column, and the bar heights are the values in the dataframe.

The code that generates this is:

import pandas as pd
import plotly.express as px

df = pd.DataFrame(
    [[0.1, 0.3, 0.5], [0.2, 0.1, 0.8], [0.5, 0.3, 0.9]],
    columns=["a", "b", "c"],
    index=["index1", "index2", "index3"],
)

px.bar(
    df.melt(ignore_index=False).reset_index(),
    facet_col="index",
    x="variable",
    y="value",
    barmode="group",
)

The key being to reformat your DataFrame using melt before trying to plot with plotly.express.
