=========================
Violin plot customization
=========================

This example demonstrates how to fully customize violin plots. The first plot
shows the default style by providing only the data. The second plot first
limits what Matplotlib draws with additional keyword arguments. Then a
simplified representation of a box plot is drawn on top. Lastly, the styles of
the artists of the violins are modified.

For more information on violin plots, the scikit-learn docs have a great
section: https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/density.html
