Error in Python Code when plotting in Seaborn

Question

I am trying to plot distribution graph in python using seaborn . But I am getting error which I am not able to solve given below.

Code:

sns.distplot(df['nn'])

Error:

cannot convert float NaN to integer

Is there any efficient way to solve this by plotting histogram and the distribution?

It's because you have missing values in your "nn" variable and seaborn distplot does not handle missing values, you can remove the missing values when plotting:

df = pd.DataFrame([1,1,2,3,4,5,6,6,6,6,np.nan], columns = ["nn"])
sns.distplot(df['nn'].dropna())

This will give you the plot:

You provide very little info. However try to skip nan values like

df.dropna(how='all', inplace=True)
