Write a Python program using pandas to perform the following tasks:

1. Create a DataFrame from a dictionary with columns: 'Product', 'Category', 'Price', and 'Quantity' containing:
- Product: ['Laptop', 'Mouse', 'Keyboard', 'Monitor', 'Headphones']
- Category: ['Electronics', 'Accessories', 'Accessories', 'Electronics', 'Accessories']
- Price: [1200, 25, 80, 300, 100]
- Quantity: [10, 50, 30, 20, 40]

2. Add a new column 'Total_Value' that is the product of 'Price' and 'Quantity'.

3. Calculate the total value for each category and print it.

4. Find the product with the highest total value and print its details.

5. Filter the DataFrame to show only products in the 'Electronics' category with a price greater than 200.

import pandas as pd

# 1. Create the DataFrame
data = {
    'Product': ['Laptop', 'Mouse', 'Keyboard', 'Monitor', 'Headphones'],
    'Category': ['Electronics', 'Accessories', 'Accessories', 'Electronics', 'Accessories'],
    'Price': [1200, 25, 80, 300, 100],
    'Quantity': [10, 50, 30, 20, 40]
}
df = pd.DataFrame(data)

# 2. Add Total_Value column
df['Total_Value'] = df['Price'] * df['Quantity']

# 3. Calculate total value by category
total_by_category = df.groupby('Category')['Total_Value'].sum()

# 4. Find product with highest total value
highest_value_product = df.loc[df['Total_Value'].idxmax()]

# 5. Filter electronics with price > 200
electronics_high_price = df[(df['Category'] == 'Electronics') & (df['Price'] > 200)]

# Print results
print("Original DataFrame:")
print(df)
print("\nTotal Value by Category:")
print(total_by_category)
print("\nProduct with Highest Total Value:")
print(highest_value_product)
print("\nElectronics Products with Price > 200:")
print(electronics_high_price)

Output:

Original DataFrame:
      Product     Category  Price  Quantity  Total_Value
0     Laptop   Electronics   1200        10       12000
1      Mouse  Accessories     25        50       1250
2  Keyboard  Accessories     80        30       2400
3   Monitor   Electronics    300        20        6000
4  Headphones  Accessories    100        40       4000

Total Value by Category:
Category
Accessories    7650
Electronics    18000
dtype: int64

Product with Highest Total Value:
Product             Laptop
Category      Electronics
Price               1200
Quantity              10
Total_Value       12000
Name: 0, dtype: object

Electronics Products with Price > 200:
   Product     Category  Price  Quantity  Total_Value
0  Laptop  Electronics   1200        10       12000

How can you use Seaborn to create a heatmap that visualizes the correlation matrix of a dataset, and what are the key steps involved in preprocessing the data and customizing the plot for better readability? Provide a detailed code example with explanations at an intermediate level, including handling missing values, selecting relevant columns, and adjusting the color palette and annotations.

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import seaborn as sns
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Step 1: Load a sample dataset (e.g., tips from seaborn's built-in datasets)
df = sns.load_dataset('tips')

# Step 2: Select only numeric columns for correlation analysis
numeric_df = df.select_dtypes(include=[np.number])

# Step 3: Handle missing values (if any)
numeric_df = numeric_df.dropna()

# Step 4: Compute the correlation matrix
correlation_matrix = numeric_df.corr()

# Step 5: Create a heatmap using Seaborn
plt.figure(figsize=(10, 8))
sns.heatmap(correlation_matrix, annot=True, cmap='coolwarm', center=0, linewidths=.5, fmt='.2f')
plt.title('Correlation Heatmap of Numeric Features in Tips Dataset')
plt.tight_layout()
plt.show()

Explanation:
- Step 1: We load a built-in dataset from Seaborn to work with.
- Step 2: Only numeric columns are selected because correlation is computed between numerical variables.
- Step 3: Missing values are removed to avoid errors during computation.
- Step 4: The corr() method computes pairwise correlations between columns.
- Step 5: sns.heatmap() creates a visual representation where colors represent correlation strength, annot=True adds the actual correlation coefficients, cmap='coolwarm' uses a diverging color scheme, and fmt='.2f' formats numbers to two decimal places.

Pandas Python Tip: Custom Column Operations with apply()! 🚀

The df.apply() method is powerful for applying a function along an axis of the DataFrame (rows or columns), especially useful for custom transformations on columns or rows.

import pandas as pd

data = {'Name': ['Alice', 'Bob', 'Charlie'],
        'Score': [85, 92, 78]}
df = pd.DataFrame(data)

Example: Create a new column 'Grade' based on 'Score'

def assign_grade(score):
    if score >= 90:
        return 'A'
    elif score >= 80:
        return 'B'
    else:
        return 'C'

df['Grade'] = df['Score'].apply(assign_grade)
print(df)

You can also use lambda functions for simpler operations

df['Score_Double'] = df['Score'].apply(lambda x: x * 2)
print(df)

Key Takeaway: df.apply() (especially on a Series) is excellent for element-wise custom logic, often more readable than complex vectorized operations for specific tasks.
