    • Since Seaborn version 0.12, Seaborn objects have been introduced. These provide a powerful alternative to the original plotting functions. The objects are inspired by R’s ggplot2.

      Let’s take a simple example. First, we import the objects as follows: 

      import seaborn.objects as so

      The way plots are built with objects is specific. A single function is used to create plots:

      so.Plot()

      We then specify the data we are going to use:

      so.Plot(tips,x=”total_bill”)

      Here, tips is Seaborn’s built-in tips dataset.

      Once the data is specified, we decide what to do with it using add(), here an histogram:

      so.Plot(tips,x=”total_bill”).add(so.Bar(),so.Hist()).show()

      And here is the result:
