The **`.boxplot()`** is a method in the Matplotlib library that returns a box and whisker plot based on one or more arrays of data as input.
The **`matplotlib.pyplot.boxplot()`** method is a powerful data visualization function in matplotlib's pyplot module that creates box-and-whisker plots to display the statistical summary of a dataset. This method displays the distribution of data through quartiles, showing the median, first quartile (Q1), third quartile (Q3), and potential outliers in a compact visual format.
