Common Headers in Python

For different functionalities, we need different types of headers.

Here is a commonly used one:

# Data manipulation
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import seaborn as sns

# Options for pandas
pd.options.display.max_columns = 50
pd.options.display.max_rows = 30

# Display all cell outputs
from IPython.core.interactiveshell import InteractiveShell
InteractiveShell.ast_node_interactivity = 'all'

from IPython import get_ipython
ipython = get_ipython()

# autoreload extension
if 'autoreload' not in ipython.extension_manager.loaded:
    %load_ext autoreload

%autoreload 2

# Visualizations
import chart_studio.plotly as py
import plotly.graph_objs as go
from plotly.offline import iplot, init_notebook_mode
init_notebook_mode(connected=True)

import cufflinks as cf
cf.go_offline(connected=True)
cf.set_config_file(theme='white')

If we would like to create a bar chart race, we would use

import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.ticker as ticker
import matplotlib.animation as animation
from IPython.display import HTML

If we would like to do mathematical calculations, we would use
