Description

Created comprehensive documentation for matplotlib's stackplot() method (stackplot.md) following Codecademy's documentation standards to the best of my ability for inclusion in the Docs repository. This included:

  • Following Codecademy's YAML Front Matter standard with properly formatted Title, Description, Subjects, Tags, and Catalog Content
  • Making a clear and concise descriptive overview of the stackplot() method's purpose of visualizing cumulative data contributions and how those contributions change over time
  • Thoroughly defining the method's syntax
  • Giving details on all eight of stackplot's parameters including baseline options and **kwargs
  • Explaining the list of PolyCollection objects the method produces as a return value
  • Providing a practical, basic example of stackplot() being used to visualize sales data for different product types, inclusive of the example's code blocks and graphic display output
  • Providing a Codebyte section as an interactive example, per Codecademy's guidelines
  • Constructing a comprehensive 6 question and answer FAQ section covering colors, patterns, stacking order, transparency, negative values, and edge styling
