Visually inspecting boxplots

df = pd.read_csv(filepath_or_buffer='~/Data/iris.data.csv', header=None, sep=',')

df.columns=['Sepal Length','Sepal Width','Petal Length','Petal Width', 'Species']

data = df.iloc[:,0:4].values
target = df.iloc[:,4].values

df[:5]

sb.boxplot(x='Species', y = 'Sepal Length', data=df, palette='hls')

Looking at the scatterplot matrix

sb.pairplot(df, hue='Species', palette='hls')
