Applied Data Science with Python - homework 2.2 (Weather plotting)

[eyavuz21]

Hey all,

I have the following code below:

from datetime import datetime
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

data = pd.read_csv('data/C2A2_data/BinnedCsvs_d400/fb441e62df2d58994928907a91895ec62c2c42e6cd075c2700843b89.csv') 
newdata = data[(data['Date'] >= '2005-01-01') & (data['Date'] <= '2014-12-12')]
datamax = newdata[newdata['Element']=='TMAX']
datamin = newdata[newdata['Element']=='TMIN']
datamax = datamax.groupby('Date').max()
datamin = datamin.groupby('Date').min()
datamax = datamax.reset_index()
datamin = datamin.reset_index()
datamax = datamax[~datamax['Date'].str.contains("02-29")]
datamin = datamin[~datamin['Date'].str.contains("02-29")]

breakoutdata = data[(data['Date']  > '2014-12-31')]
datamax2015 = breakoutdata[breakoutdata['Element']=='TMAX']
datamin2015 = breakoutdata[breakoutdata['Element']=='TMIN']
datamax2015 = datamax2015.groupby('Date').max()
datamin2015 = datamin2015.groupby('Date').min()
datamax2015 = datamax2015.reset_index()
datamin2015 = datamin2015.reset_index()
datamax2015 = datamax2015[~datamax2015['Date'].str.contains("02-29")]
datamin2015 = datamin2015[~datamin2015['Date'].str.contains("02-29")]

datamin['Date'] = pd.to_datetime(datamin['Date'])
datamin2015['Date'] = pd.to_datetime(datamin2015['Date'])
datamin["day_of_year"] = datamin["Date"].dt.dayofyear
datamin2015["day_of_year"] = datamin2015["Date"].dt.dayofyear
dataminappend = datamin2015.join(datamin,on="day_of_year",rsuffix="_new")
lower = dataminappend.loc[dataminappend["Data_Value_new"]>dataminappend["Data_Value"]]

datamax['Date'] = pd.to_datetime(datamax['Date'])
datamax2015['Date'] = pd.to_datetime(datamax2015['Date'])
datamax["day_of_year"] = datamax["Date"].dt.dayofyear
datamax2015["day_of_year"] = datamax2015["Date"].dt.dayofyear
datamaxappend = datamax2015.join(datamax,on="day_of_year",rsuffix="_new")
upper = datamaxappend.loc[datamaxappend["Data_Value_new"]<datamaxappend["Data_Value"]]
                          
ax = plt.gca()
plt.plot(datamax['Date'],datamax['Data_Value'],color='red')
plt.plot(datamin['Date'],datamin['Data_Value'], color='blue')
plt.scatter(upper['Date'],upper['Data_Value'],color='red')
plt.scatter(lower['Date'],lower['Data_Value'], color='blue')

plt.ylabel("Temperature (degrees C)",color='navy')
plt.xlabel("Date",color='navy',labelpad=15)
plt.title('Record high and low temperatures by day (2005-2014)', alpha=1.0,color='brown',y=1.08)
ax.legend(loc='upper center', bbox_to_anchor=(0.5, -0.35),
          fancybox=False,labels=['Record high','Record low'])
plt.xticks(rotation=30)
plt.fill_between(range(len(datamax['Date'])), datamax['Data_Value'], datamin['Data_Value'],color='yellow',alpha=0.8)
plt.show()

However, I keep getting the error:
TypeError: invalid type promotion

And I'm struggling to understand why?
