Sample df



Output of this code



import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# data to plot
n_groups = 5

means_frank=df['crime_categories'].groupby(df.Date1.dt.year).agg('count')

#create plot
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
index = np.arange(n_groups)
bar_width = 0.35
opacity = 0.8

rects1 = plt.bar(index, means_frank, bar_width,
alpha=opacity,
color='b',
label='Violence')

rects2 = plt.bar(index + bar_width, means_frank, bar_width,
alpha=opacity,
color='g',
label='Non-Violence')

plt.xlabel('Year')
plt.ylabel('Count')
plt.title('Crime by Year')
plt.xticks(index + bar_width, ('2012','2013','2014','2015','2016'))
plt.legend()

plt.tight_layout()
plt.show()


This is what I get when I run the code



I want to display Violence and Non-Violence count across years like for 2012 the Violence is 100 and Non-Violence is 200

  • @user8408080 I have two categories type i.e., Violence and Non-Violence across subsequent years (2012-2016) and I want to plot the graph for each year by comparing the count of the Category type for each year
