If you wish to follow along with the presentation you should have Python 2 installed with the following packages:

Seaborn

Seaborn is an awesome library for making beautiful and informative graphics in Python. Its mission is to make visualization a central part of exploring and understanding data. Adding import seaborn to your code will not only make your plots look amazing, it will also make your life easier!!!
