I got stuck and looked at the solutions:
## Generate first column of line charts. STEM degrees.
for sp in range(0,18,3):
cat_index = int(sp/3) #NOT CLEAR WHY / by 3 !!!!!!
ax = fig.add_subplot(6,3,sp+1)
ax.plot(women_degrees['Year'],
women_degrees[stem_cats[cat_index]],
c=cb_dark_blue, label='Women', linewidth=3)
ax.plot(women_degrees['Year'],
100-women_degrees[stem_cats[cat_index]],
c=cb_orange, label='Men', linewidth=3)
for key,spine in ax.spines.items():
spine.set_visible(False)
ax.set_xlim(1968, 2011)
ax.set_ylim(0,100)
ax.set_title(stem_cats[cat_index])
ax.tick_params(bottom="off", top="off", left="off", right="off")
if cat_index == 0:
ax.text(2003, 85, 'Women')
ax.text(2005, 10, 'Men')
elif cat_index == 5:
ax.text(2005, 87, 'Men')
ax.text(2003, 7, 'Women')
## Generate second column of line charts. Liberal arts degrees.
for sp in range(1,16,3):
cat_index = int((sp-1)/3)
ax = fig.add_subplot(6,3,sp+1)
ax.plot(women_degrees['Year'], women_degrees[lib_arts_cats[cat_index]], c=cb_dark_blue, label='Women', linewidth=3)
ax.plot(women_degrees['Year'], 100-women_degrees[lib_arts_cats[cat_index]], c=cb_orange, label='Men', linewidth=3)
for key,spine in ax.spines.items():
spine.set_visible(False)
ax.set_xlim(1968, 2011)
ax.set_ylim(0,100)
ax.set_title(lib_arts_cats[cat_index])
ax.tick_params(bottom="off", top="off", left="off", right="off")
if cat_index == 0:
ax.text(2003, 78, 'Women')
ax.text(2005, 18, 'Men')
## Generate third column of line charts. Other degrees.
for sp in range(2,20,3):
cat_index = int((sp-2)/3)
ax = fig.add_subplot(6,3,sp+1)
ax.plot(women_degrees['Year'], women_degrees[other_cats[cat_index]], c=cb_dark_blue, label='Women', linewidth=3)
ax.plot(women_degrees['Year'], 100-women_degrees[other_cats[cat_index]], c=cb_orange, label='Men', linewidth=3)
for key,spine in ax.spines.items():
spine.set_visible(False)
ax.set_xlim(1968, 2011)
ax.set_ylim(0,100)
ax.set_title(other_cats[cat_index])
ax.tick_params(bottom="off", top="off", left="off", right="off")
if cat_index == 0:
ax.text(2003, 90, 'Women')
ax.text(2005, 5, 'Men')
elif cat_index == 5:
ax.text(2005, 62, 'Men')
ax.text(2003, 30, 'Women')
Then I just copied the solution’s code on my jupyterlab. I am not able to understand the code yet and, anyway, it does not work on my python version (the latest)
I dont’t undestand why :
cat_index = int(sp/3)
# and then
ax.plot(women_degrees['Year'],
women_degrees[stem_cats[cat_index]],
c=cb_dark_blue, label='Women', linewidth=3)
In my newbie head, the first ‘sp’ is 1, or at least it would be if I perform
for sp in range(0,6):
print(sp+1)
So, the first ‘cat_index’ in the loop should be equal to 1/3 (“women_degrees[stem_cats[0.33333…]]”???)
Also, I don’t understand why ranges are changing in the 3 for loops.
Anyway, on my jupyter notebok, I get a long warning message and no result
anaconda3\lib\site-packages\ipykernel_launcher.py:47: MatplotlibDeprecationWarning: Adding an axes using the same arguments as a previous axes currently reuses the earlier instance. In a future version, a new instance will always be created and returned. Meanwhile, this warning can be suppressed, and the future behavior ensured, by passing a unique label to each axes instance.
Could it be related to the gap between my python version and Dataquest platform’s one ?
Finally, won’t be just easier and more practical to use a unique list with all the degrees ?
Many thanks to consider this request of clarification, I spent a significant amount of time trying to understand the solution code and would really need to understand
