There is some prework necessary to get to plotting, but we can now do it. Let's start by transposing the post by month in X and Y axis.
0:10
Then it becomes pretty easy. You can just type data equals a list, bar, taking, X equals X, Y equals Y.
0:29
You can then say plotly offline, you have to specify the mode, iplot, data, and you can give it a file name. Look at that.
0:45
Even has numbers if you hover over the months. It also posted when I was preparing to a URL so you can access those here.

That's a nice feature of plotly that you can make your work easily accessible. Let's move on to the breakdown of the blog categories.

The code is very similar actually. I'm going to use my transpose helper. X and Y now make a bit better naming labels and values.
1:15
Again I use the go object but this time I calls with pie and I give it labels equals labels and values equals values.
1:26
Then we call plotly again, offline mode, iplot, put the pie object in the list and give it a file name.
1:43
Look at that. Challenges is our big thing, you probably know by now but we do as many articles, relatively. We have news and some special and guests.
1:58
Thirdly, the comment tags, similar code and to transpose list of tuples, and here I have to take the top tags as we find before.
2:14
Tags equals go, again I do a pie chart and I could be using other types of graph but I find a pie chart being adequate for this type of data.
2:27
I also want to keep it simple. So, in the coming days you can explore the library further yourself. Similarly, has to have labels and values defined.
2:38
Plotly, offline, iplot, and it's important to put this in a list, filename, just going to say tags for now. Cool, right?
2:53
Python learning Twitter Code Challenges. Of course similar to the categories but here you see also, when we get to a bit

more granular level you get into Flask and Django. It's true that we write quite a bit about those. There's even some machine learning, etc.
