This is a simple jupyter notebook that attempts to create and customize an animated plot using matplotlib library. The sample dataset was sourced from the in-game win probabilities generated by one of the models that power the web application at http://predictors.shinyapps.io/wpsg/. You may change the dataset fields and the plot parameters to customize the plot according to your requirements.
It is advisable to use the Anaconda Distribution for setting up the Jupyter Notebook Interface and Python. More information regarding the process of setting up the environment can be found here and here.
Open the Jupyter Notebook interface in the source folder of the notebook, and open animated_plot.ipynb. Run each cell of the notebook sequentially to get the expected result. You might have to install more dependencies using a package manager such as pip during this process.
