Description
Bug summary
The boxplot function in the Datacamp Python iShell keeps giving python-errors regarding the set_ticks-function when calling the boxplot function with: jobs.boxplot(fontsize=6, vert=False), while the boxplot shows nevertheless, error-free.
Which makes it so that I cannot complete the exercise in the Datacamp curriculum.
Added file: ch5_employment.csv
Code for reproduction
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.style.use('fivethirtyeight')
jobs_file = 'https://assets.datacamp.com/production/course_5226/datasets/ch5_employment.csv'
# Read in jobs file
jobs = pd.read_csv(jobs_file)
# Convert datestamo column to a datetime object
jobs['datestamp'] = pd.to_datetime(jobs['datestamp'])
# Set the datestamp columns as the index of your DataFrame
jobs = jobs.set_index('datestamp')
# Generate a boxplot
jobs.boxplot(fontsize=6, vert=False)
plt.show()
# Generate numerical summaries
print(jobs.define())Actual outcome
It keeps giving the error:

ValueError: The number of FixedLocator locations (32), usually from a call to set_ticks, does not match the number of ticklabels (16).
Expected outcome
Although it does render a boxplot error-free, like so:
But this time without python-errors, please.
