Grouped violinplot


If you have one numerical variable, several groups and subgroups, you could probably display information through a grouped violinplot. Note that you can use faceting as well to achieve interesting results.

Through the following example, we expect to give an overview of the way clients tip throughout the week, considering smokers and non-smokers separately. The 'hue' parameter enables you to differentiate the data based on one column (boolean, categorical or ordinal data): here it is set to "smoker" which contains boolean data.

# libraries & dataset
import seaborn as sns
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
# set a grey background (use sns.set_theme() if seaborn version 0.11.0 or above) 
sns.set(style="darkgrid")
df = sns.load_dataset('tips')
 
# Grouped violinplot
sns.violinplot(x="day", y="total_bill", hue="smoker", data=df, palette="Pastel1")
plt.show()
