+# Hammock plot
+
+
+## Description
+
+    The hammock plot draws a graph to visualize categorical or mixed categorical / continuous data.
+    Variables are lined up parallel to the vertical axis. Categories within a variable are spread out along a
+    vertical line. Categories of adjacent variables are connected by boxes. (The boxes are parallelograms; we
+    use boxes for brevity). The "width" of a box is proportional to the number of observations that correspond
+    to that box (i.e. have the same values/categories for the two variables). The "width" of a box refers to the
+    distance between the longer set of parallel lines rather than the vertical distance.
+
+    If the boxes degenerate to a single line, and no labels or missing values are used the hammock plot
+    corresponds to a parallel coordinate plot. Boxes degenerate into a single line if barwidth is so small that
+    the boxes for categorical variables appear to be a single line. For continuous variables boxes will usually
+    appear to be a single line because each category typically only contains one observation.
+
+    The order of variables in varlist determines the order of variables in the graph.  All variables in varlist
+    must be numerical. String variables should be converted to numerical variables first, e.g. using encode or
+    destring.
+
+
+
+
+## Getting started
+
+You can install hammock from `pip`:
+
+```shell
+pip install hammock_plot
+```
+
+
+### Example: Asthma data
+
+We import the diabetes dataset:
+
+```python
+import hammock_plot
+import pandas as pd
+df = pd.read_csv('./data/data_asthma.csv')
+```
+
+Minimal example of a hammock plot: 
+```python
+var = ["hospitalizations","group","gender","comorbidities"]
+hammock = hammock_plot.Hammock(data_df = df)
+ax = hammock.plot(var=var)
+```
+<img src="image/asthma_minimal.png" alt="Minimal example for a Hammock plot" width="600"/>
+
+The labels for the numerical variables aren't as desired; we would like the labels directly drawn on the data. We specify that we want no levels for our numerical variables.
+
+```python
+numeric_levels = {"comorbidities": None, "hospitalizations": None}
+ax = hammock.plot(var=var, numerical_var_levels=numeric_levels)
+```
+
+<img src="image/asthma_levels.png" alt="Hammock plot" width="600"/>
+
+The ordering of the child-adolescent-adult variable is not in the desired order; adult should not be in the middle. We now specify a specific order, child-adolescent-adult. 
+
+```python
+group_order = ["child", "adolescent", "adult"]
+value_order = {"group": group_order}
+hammock = hammock_plot.Hammock(data_df = df)
+ax = hammock.plot(var=var, value_order=value_order, numerical_var_levels=numeric_levels)
+```
+
+<!--- to restrict image size, I am using a an html command, rather than the standard ![](image.png) --->
+<!---    ![Hammock plot ](image/asthma1.png)   --->
+<img src="image/asthma_value_order.png" alt="Hammock plot" width="600"/>
+
+We highlight observations with comorbidities=0  in red:
+
+```python
+ax = hammock.plot(var=var ,hi_var="comorbidities", hi_value=[0], colors=["red"], numerical_var_levels=numeric_levels)
+```
+
+<!---   ![Hammock plot with highlighting](image/asthma_highlighting.png)    --->
+<img src="image/asthma_highlighting.png" alt="Hammock plot with highlighting" width="600"/>
+
+
+### Example Satisfaction scales for the diabetes data
+
+We import the diabetes dataset:
+
+```python
+import hammock_plot
+import pandas as pd
+df = pd.read_csv('./data/data_diabetes.csv')
+```
+
+The three variables represent different ordinal scales for satisfaction. We are checking for missing values: 
+```python
+var = ["sataces","satcomm","satrate"]
+hammock = hammock_plot.Hammock(data_df = df)
+ax = hammock.plot(var=var, missing=True, min_bar_height=0.2,numerical_var_levels={"sataces": None, "satcomm": None, "satrate": None}) 
+```
+
+<img src="image/diabetes.png" alt="Hammock plot for the Diabetes Data" width="600"/>
+
+The missing value category is shown at the bottom for each variable. We find missing values for all 3 variables, but fewest for the last one. We also see a phenomenon called "top coding", where 
+satisfied respondents simply choose the highest value.
+
+### Example value_order for the Shakespeare data
+
+We import the Shakespeare dataset:
+
+```python
+import hammock_plot
+import pandas as pd
+df = pd.read_csv('./data/data_shakespeare.csv')
+```
+
+We use `speaker_dict` to map the values of the variables `speaker1` and `speaker2` according to the social class hierarchy.
+```python
+var_lst = ["type","speaker1","speaker2","sex1"]
+color_lst = ["red","yellow","green"]
+hi_value = ["Beggars","Citizens","Gentry"]
+
+speaker_order=["Beggars", "Royalty", "Nobility", "Gentry", "Citizens", "Yeomanry"]
+
+hammock = hammock_plot.Hammock(data_df = df)
+ax = hammock.plot(var=var_lst,hi_var = "speaker1", hi_value=hi_value,color=color_lst, bar_width=0.6,missing=True,
+                value_order ={"speaker1":speaker_order,"speaker2":speaker_order} )
+```
+
+<img src="image/shakespeare_order.png" alt="Hammock plot for the Shakespeare data, with value_order specified" width="600"/>
+
+### Example same_scale using Shakespeare data
+We can accomplish similar results using `same_scale`.
+```python
+hammock = hammock_plot.Hammock(data_df = df)
+ax = hammock.plot(var=var_lst,hi_var = "speaker1", hi_value=hi_value,color=color_lst, bar_width=0.6,missing=True,
+                value_order ={"speaker1":speaker_order}, same_scale=["speaker1", "speaker2"] )
+```
+<img src="image/shakespeare_scale.png" alt="Hammock plot for the Shakespeare data, with same_scale specified" width="600"/>
+
+### Example numerical_display_type using penguin data
+
+We import the Shakespeare dataset:
+
+```python
+import hammock_plot
+import pandas as pd
+df = pd.read_csv('./data/data_penguins.csv')
+```
+
+We use `numerical_display_type` to control how we want to display our numerical data.
+
+```python
+hammock = hammock_plot.Hammock(df)
+ax = hammock.plot(
+    var= ["species", "island", "bill_length_mm", "bill_depth_mm", "flipper_length_mm", "body_mass_g"],
+    hi_var="island",
+    hi_value=["Torgersen"],
+    missing=True,
+    numerical_display_type={"bill_length_mm":"box", "bill_depth_mm": "rugplot", "flipper_length_mm": "violin", "body_mass_g":"box"},
+)
+```
+<img src="image/penguin_display_violin.png" alt="Hammock plot for the penguin data, demonstrating numerical_display_type" width="600"/>
+
+Box plots support multiple highlight values. Violin plots only support one highlight value.
+```python
+ax = hammock.plot(
+  var= ["species", "island", "bill_length_mm", "bill_depth_mm", "flipper_length_mm", "body_mass_g"],
+  hi_var="island",
+  hi_value=["Torgersen", "Biscoe"],
+  missing=True,
+  numerical_display_type={"bill_length_mm":"box", "bill_depth_mm": "box", "flipper_length_mm": "box", "body_mass_g":"box"},
+)
+```
+<img src="image/penguin_display_types.png" alt="Hammock plot for the penguin data, demonstrating numerical_display_type with multiple highlighting" width="600"/>

+
+## Historical context
+
+In 1898, Sankey diagrams were developed to visualize flows of energy and materials. 
+
+In 1985, Inselberg popularized parallel coordinates to visualize continuous variables only. The central contribution is the use of parallel axes.
+
+In 2003, Schonlau proposed the hammock plot. This was the first plot to visualize categorical data (or mixed categorical continuous data) on parallel axes. 
+
+In 2010, Rosvall proposed alluvial plots to visualize network variables over time. Rather than using bars to connect axes, alluvial plots use rounded curves. Alluvial plots are now also used to visualize categorical data.
+
+There are several additional variations that also visualize categorical data including Parallel Set plots (Bendix et al, 2005), Right Angle plots (Hofmann and Vendettuoli, 2013),
+and generalized parallel coordinate plots (GPCPs) (popularized by VanderPlas et al., 2023).

+# Hammock plot
+
+
+## Description
+
+    The hammock plot draws a graph to visualize categorical or mixed categorical / continuous data.
+    Variables are lined up parallel to the vertical axis. Categories within a variable are spread out along a
+    vertical line. Categories of adjacent variables are connected by boxes. (The boxes are parallelograms; we
+    use boxes for brevity). The "width" of a box is proportional to the number of observations that correspond
+    to that box (i.e. have the same values/categories for the two variables). The "width" of a box refers to the
+    distance between the longer set of parallel lines rather than the vertical distance.
+
+    If the boxes degenerate to a single line, and no labels or missing values are used the hammock plot
+    corresponds to a parallel coordinate plot. Boxes degenerate into a single line if barwidth is so small that
+    the boxes for categorical variables appear to be a single line. For continuous variables boxes will usually
+    appear to be a single line because each category typically only contains one observation.
+
+    The order of variables in varlist determines the order of variables in the graph.  All variables in varlist
+    must be numerical. String variables should be converted to numerical variables first, e.g. using encode or
+    destring.
+
+
+
+
+## Getting started
+
+You can install hammock from `pip`:
+
+```shell
+pip install hammock_plot
+```
+
+
+### Example: Asthma data
+
+We import the diabetes dataset:
+
+```python
+import hammock_plot
+import pandas as pd
+df = pd.read_csv('./data/data_asthma.csv')
+```
+
+Minimal example of a hammock plot: 
+```python
+var = ["hospitalizations","group","gender","comorbidities"]
+hammock = hammock_plot.Hammock(data_df = df)
+ax = hammock.plot(var=var)
+```
+<img src="image/asthma_minimal.png" alt="Minimal example for a Hammock plot" width="600"/>
+
+The labels for the numerical variables aren't as desired; we would like the labels directly drawn on the data. We specify that we want no levels for our numerical variables.
+
+```python
+numeric_levels = {"comorbidities": None, "hospitalizations": None}
+ax = hammock.plot(var=var, numerical_var_levels=numeric_levels)
+```
+
+<img src="image/asthma_levels.png" alt="Hammock plot" width="600"/>
+
+The ordering of the child-adolescent-adult variable is not in the desired order; adult should not be in the middle. We now specify a specific order, child-adolescent-adult. 
+
+```python
+group_order = ["child", "adolescent", "adult"]
+value_order = {"group": group_order}
+hammock = hammock_plot.Hammock(data_df = df)
+ax = hammock.plot(var=var, value_order=value_order, numerical_var_levels=numeric_levels)
+```
+
+<!--- to restrict image size, I am using a an html command, rather than the standard ![](image.png) --->
+<!---    ![Hammock plot ](image/asthma1.png)   --->
+<img src="image/asthma_value_order.png" alt="Hammock plot" width="600"/>
+
+We highlight observations with comorbidities=0  in red:
+
+```python
+ax = hammock.plot(var=var ,hi_var="comorbidities", hi_value=[0], colors=["red"], numerical_var_levels=numeric_levels)
+```
+
+<!---   ![Hammock plot with highlighting](image/asthma_highlighting.png)    --->
+<img src="image/asthma_highlighting.png" alt="Hammock plot with highlighting" width="600"/>
+
+
+### Example Satisfaction scales for the diabetes data
+
+We import the diabetes dataset:
+
+```python
+import hammock_plot
+import pandas as pd
+df = pd.read_csv('./data/data_diabetes.csv')
+```
+
+The three variables represent different ordinal scales for satisfaction. We are checking for missing values: 
+```python
+var = ["sataces","satcomm","satrate"]
+hammock = hammock_plot.Hammock(data_df = df)
+ax = hammock.plot(var=var, missing=True, min_bar_height=0.2,numerical_var_levels={"sataces": None, "satcomm": None, "satrate": None}) 
+```
+
+<img src="image/diabetes.png" alt="Hammock plot for the Diabetes Data" width="600"/>
+
+The missing value category is shown at the bottom for each variable. We find missing values for all 3 variables, but fewest for the last one. We also see a phenomenon called "top coding", where 
+satisfied respondents simply choose the highest value.
+
+### Example value_order for the Shakespeare data
+
+We import the Shakespeare dataset:
+
+```python
+import hammock_plot
+import pandas as pd
+df = pd.read_csv('./data/data_shakespeare.csv')
+```
+
+We use `speaker_dict` to map the values of the variables `speaker1` and `speaker2` according to the social class hierarchy.
+```python
+var_lst = ["type","speaker1","speaker2","sex1"]
+color_lst = ["red","yellow","green"]
+hi_value = ["Beggars","Citizens","Gentry"]
+
+speaker_order=["Beggars", "Royalty", "Nobility", "Gentry", "Citizens", "Yeomanry"]
+
+hammock = hammock_plot.Hammock(data_df = df)
+ax = hammock.plot(var=var_lst,hi_var = "speaker1", hi_value=hi_value,color=color_lst, bar_width=0.6,missing=True,
+                value_order ={"speaker1":speaker_order,"speaker2":speaker_order} )
+```
+
+<img src="image/shakespeare_order.png" alt="Hammock plot for the Shakespeare data, with value_order specified" width="600"/>
+
+### Example same_scale using Shakespeare data
+We can accomplish similar results using `same_scale`.
+```python
+hammock = hammock_plot.Hammock(data_df = df)
+ax = hammock.plot(var=var_lst,hi_var = "speaker1", hi_value=hi_value,color=color_lst, bar_width=0.6,missing=True,
+                value_order ={"speaker1":speaker_order}, same_scale=["speaker1", "speaker2"] )
+```
+<img src="image/shakespeare_scale.png" alt="Hammock plot for the Shakespeare data, with same_scale specified" width="600"/>
+
+### Example numerical_display_type using penguin data
+
+We import the Shakespeare dataset:
+
+```python
+import hammock_plot
+import pandas as pd
+df = pd.read_csv('./data/data_penguins.csv')
+```
+
+We use `numerical_display_type` to control how we want to display our numerical data.
+
+```python
+hammock = hammock_plot.Hammock(df)
+ax = hammock.plot(
+    var= ["species", "island", "bill_length_mm", "bill_depth_mm", "flipper_length_mm", "body_mass_g"],
+    hi_var="island",
+    hi_value=["Torgersen"],
+    missing=True,
+    numerical_display_type={"bill_length_mm":"box", "bill_depth_mm": "rugplot", "flipper_length_mm": "violin", "body_mass_g":"box"},
+)
+```
+<img src="image/penguin_display_violin.png" alt="Hammock plot for the penguin data, demonstrating numerical_display_type" width="600"/>
+
+Box plots support multiple highlight values. Violin plots only support one highlight value.
+```python
+ax = hammock.plot(
+  var= ["species", "island", "bill_length_mm", "bill_depth_mm", "flipper_length_mm", "body_mass_g"],

+| |             `unibar`| `bool` | Whether or not to display unibars between the plotting segments |
+| Highlighting | `hi_var` | `str` |  Variable to be highlighted. Default is none. |
+| | `hi_value` | `List[str or int] or str or int` | Value(s) of `hi_var` to be highlighted. You can highlighted one or multiple values. You can also pass an expression (e.g. "x>1 and (x>5 or x<4)") in string when you want to specify a range for a numeric hi_var.|
+| | `hi_box` | `str` | Controls how highlighted values are displayed within category labels. Options are "vertical" for vertically stacked color segments or "horizontal" for horizontally split color segments. Default is "vertical".|
+| | `hi_missing` | `bool` | Whether or not missing values for `hi_var` should be highlighted. |
+| | `color` | `List[str]` | List of colors corresponding to the list of values to be highlighted. Each color can be specified as a plain color name (e.g., `"red"`, `"yellow"`) or in the format `"color=alpha"` (e.g., `"red=0.5"`) to control transparency/intensity, where `alpha` is a decimal between 0 and 1. The default highlight color list is `["red", "green", "yellow", "lightblue", "orange", "gray", "brown", "olive", "pink", "cyan", "magenta"]`. |
+| | `default_color` | `str` |  Default color of plotting elements for boxes that are not highlighted. Default is "blue" |
+| Manipulating Spacing and Layout |   `uni_fraction` | `float`  | Fraction of vertical space that should be populated by data. Adjusts the height of the data points. Defaults is 0.08. | 
+| |              `space` |  `float`  |Fraction of horizontal space allocated to labels/univ. bars rather than to connecting boxes. Default is 0.3 | 
+| |              `label_options` |  `Dict[str, Dict[str, Any]]`  | Manipulates the size and look of the labels. Args following the options in the website: https://matplotlib.org/stable/api/_as_gen/matplotlib.pyplot.text.html Example:{"ExampleVarname":{"fontsize":12,"fontstyle":"italic","fontweight":"black","color":"b"}}  Default is None. | 
+| |              `height` |  `float`  | Height of the plot in inches. Default is 10. | 
+| |              `width` |  `float`  |  Width of the plot in inches. Default is 15. Caution: Width too narrow may distort the plot. | 
+| |               `alpha` | `float` | Alpha value for the colours in the plot. Float from 0-1. Default is 0.7. |
+| |              `min_bar_height` | `float` | Minimal bar height. Bars representing only a tiny fraction of the data may be so narrow, that they are invivisible in a plot. The default value tries to ensure this does not happen.  Default is 0.1.
+| Other options |              `shape` |  `str`  | Shape of the boxes. "rectangle" (default) or "parallelogram". | 
+| |              `same_scale` |  `List[str]`  | List of variables that have the same scale. Default is None. | 
+| |              `display_figure` |  `bool`  | Whether or not to display the figure. This can be useful if you just want to save the plots. Default is 'True'. | 
+| |              `save_path` |  `str`  |   If it is not None, the figure will be saved to the given path with given name and format. Default is None. |

+## Historical context
+
+In 1898, Sankey diagrams were developed to visualize flows of energy and materials. 
+
+In 1985, Inselberg popularized parallel coordinates to visualize continuous variables only. The central contribution is the use of parallel axes.
+
+In 2003, Schonlau proposed the hammock plot. This was the first plot to visualize categorical data (or mixed categorical continuous data) on parallel axes. 
+
+In 2010, Rosvall proposed alluvial plots to visualize network variables over time. Rather than using bars to connect axes, alluvial plots use rounded curves. Alluvial plots are now also used to visualize categorical data.
+
+There are several additional variations that also visualize categorical data including Parallel Set plots (Bendix et al, 2005), Right Angle plots (Hofmann and Vendettuoli, 2013),
+and generalized parallel coordinate plots (GPCPs) (popularized by VanderPlas et al., 2023).
