datashader vs holoviews.operation.datashader #219

Closed kcpevey closed 6 years ago

kcpevey commented 6 years ago

Seems like I shouldn't need both of these, but they are both imported/used in the examples/Visualizing_Meshes.ipynb. Is that right?

jbednar commented 6 years ago
import datashader as ds
from holoviews.operation.datashader import datashade, rasterize

Here datashade (no 'r') is a HoloViews operation, applied to HoloViews elements. datashader is the underlying library, abbreviated ds here. Both are needed, because not everything from Datashader has been imported into HoloViews.
