Seaborn is a Python data visualization library based on Matplotlib. It provides a high-level interface for drawing attractive and informative statistical graphics. ## Seaborn Installation Before installing Matplotlib, ensure you have Python installed on your system. You can download and install Python from the [official Python website](https://www.python.org/). Below are the steps to install and setup Seaborn: 1. Open your terminal or command prompt and run the following command to install Seaborn using `pip`: ```bash pip install seaborn ``` 2. The basic invocation of `pip` will install seaborn and, if necessary, its mandatory dependencies. It is possible to include optional dependencies that give access to a few advanced features: ```bash pip install seaborn[stats] ``` 3. The library is also included as part of the Anaconda distribution, and it can be installed with `conda`: ```bash conda install seaborn ``` 4. As the main Anaconda repository can be slow to add new releases, you may prefer using the conda-forge channel: ```bash conda install seaborn -c conda-forge ```
