This tutorial is inspired by and steals liberally from Benjamin Root's fantastic Anatomy of Matplotlib tutorial. It also borrows some things from Rachel Rakov & Hannah Aizenman's Introduction to Machine Learning with Sklearn.

The authors are also grateful to Michael Grossberg for his liberal feedback and heatmap data set suggestion, Sadie Bartholomew for inspiring a coding challenge with her gorgeous tweet, and tutoral participant Dershan Luo for the install check bug fix. :)
