折線圖繪制：

import pandas as pd
unrate = pd.read_csv(‘unrate.csv‘)
unrate[‘DATE‘] = pd.to_datetime(unrate[‘DATE‘])#可將1948/1/1時間格式轉換為1948-01-01
print(unrate.head(12))

　 結果：

         DATE  VALUE
0  1948-01-01    3.4
1  1948-02-01    3.8
2  1948-03-01    4.0
3  1948-04-01    3.9
4  1948-05-01    3.5
5  1948-06-01    3.6
6  1948-07-01    3.6
7  1948-08-01    3.9
8  1948-09-01    3.8
9  1948-10-01    3.7
10 1948-11-01    3.8
11 1948-12-01    4.0

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
#%matplotlib inline
#Using the different pyplot functions, we can create, customize, and display a plot. For example, we can use 2 functions to :
plt.plot()
plt.show()

　　結果：

first_twelve = unrate[0:12]
plt.plot(first_twelve[‘DATE‘], first_twelve[‘VALUE‘])
plt.show()

　　結果：

#While the y-axis looks fine, the x-axis tick labels are too close together and are unreadable
#We can rotate the x-axis tick labels by 90 degrees so they don‘t overlap
#We can specify degrees of rotation using a float or integer value.
plt.plot(first_twelve[‘DATE‘], first_twelve[‘VALUE‘])
plt.xticks(rotation=45)#指定x軸標註的角度，這裏選的為45度
#print help(plt.xticks)
plt.show()

　　結果：

#xlabel(): accepts a string value, which gets set as the x-axis label.
#ylabel(): accepts a string value, which is set as the y-axis label.
#title(): accepts a string value, which is set as the plot title.
