how to add number value to the median of a sns.boxplot in python

To add the numerical value of the median to a seaborn boxplot, you can use the matplotlib library to manually calculate the median and then add it to the plot using the matplotlib functions.

Here's an example of how to do it:

main.py
import seaborn as sns
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Generate some data for the boxplot
data = [10, 12, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35]

# Create the boxplot
ax = sns.boxplot(x=data)

# Calculate the median
median = np.median(data)

# Add the median value to the plot
ax.text(0.5, median, f'Median: {median}', ha='center', va='center')

# Show the plot
plt.show()

18 lines

In this example, we first generate some data for the boxplot. Then, we create the boxplot using seaborn's boxplot function. After that, we calculate the median using numpy's median function. Finally, we use matplotlib's text function to add the median value to the plot at the specified coordinates (0.5 for x-axis and the median value for y-axis).

You can customize the text placement and formatting as per your requirements.
