Your Code: Enclose your code in 3 backticks like this
to format properly:
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
unrate = pd.read_csv('unrate.csv')
unrate['DATE'] = pd.to_datetime(unrate['DATE'])
first_twelve = unrate[0:12]
plt.plot(first_twelve["DATE"], first_twelve["VALUE"])
plt.xticks(rotation = 90)
plt.xlabel("Month")
plt.ylabel("Unemployment Rate")
plt.title("Monthly Unemployment Trends, 1948")```
I expected that a graph with x ticks labels in format date-month-year. But, the graph had x ticks labels as the name of the month followed by the year, e.g. Jan 1964.
How does this work?
Why the date of that x tick label is not showing?
