Seaborn Cheat Sheet

Seaborn Cheat Sheet

Seaborn statistical visualization cheat sheet covering distribution, relational, and categorical plots plus heatmaps and figure-level facet grids.

1 PageBeginnerApr 2, 2026

Distribution & Relational Plots

Explore relationships and distributions.

python
import seaborn as snsimport matplotlib.pyplot as pltsns.set_theme(style="whitegrid")sns.scatterplot(data=df, x="total_bill", y="tip", hue="time", size="size")sns.lineplot(data=df, x="date", y="value", hue="category")sns.histplot(data=df, x="age", bins=30, kde=True)plt.show()

Categorical Plots

Compare a numeric variable across categories.

python
sns.boxplot(data=df, x="day", y="total_bill", hue="sex")sns.violinplot(data=df, x="day", y="total_bill")sns.barplot(data=df, x="day", y="total_bill", estimator="mean", errorbar="ci")sns.countplot(data=df, x="day")

Correlation & Pairwise Plots

Visualize correlations across many variables.

python
sns.pairplot(df, hue="species")                 # matrix of pairwise plotscorr = df.corr(numeric_only=True)sns.heatmap(corr, annot=True, cmap="coolwarm", vmin=-1, vmax=1)sns.regplot(data=df, x="x", y="y")                # scatter + regression line

Figure-Level Functions

Wrappers that support faceting.

  • relplot- figure-level wrapper for scatterplot/lineplot
  • displot- figure-level wrapper for histplot/kdeplot/ecdfplot
  • catplot- figure-level wrapper for box/violin/bar/strip plots
  • jointplot- bivariate plot with marginal distributions
  • FacetGrid- manually facet data across rows/columns
  • sns.set_palette- set a named or custom color palette
Pro Tip

Prefer the figure-level functions (relplot, catplot, displot) over their axes-level counterparts when you need faceting via row=/col= — they return a FacetGrid that handles legends and layout automatically.
