Data Science and Machine Learning (Theory and Projects) A to Z - Plotly for 3D Interactive Plotting: Plotly 3D Interacti

The video tutorial explores the use of 3D plots in data visualization, emphasizing the advantages of interactive 3D plots over 2D plots. It introduces Plotly as a powerful library for creating interactive plots and provides a step-by-step guide to installing Plotly and Bokeh using Conda. The tutorial then demonstrates how to create a 3D scatter plot using Plotly, including setting up the data, customizing the plot's appearance, and handling common errors. The video concludes with a preview of future tutorials on interactive surface plots.
