error with arguments in sns.barplot()

Error with arguments in sns.barplot() in EDA section.

https://github.com/GokuMohandas/mlops-course/blob/main/notebooks/tagifai.ipynb

---

TypeError Traceback (most recent call last)
in <cell line: 4>()
2 tags, tag_counts = zip(*Counter(df.tag.values).most_common())
3 plt.figure(figsize=(10, 3))
----> 4 ax = sns.barplot(list(tags), list(tag_counts))
5 plt.title("Tag distribution", fontsize=20)
6 plt.xlabel("Tag", fontsize=16)

TypeError: barplot() takes from 0 to 1 positional arguments but 2 were given

the seaborn version in the colab notebook is 0.12.2

[naveeagrawal]

the error could be resolved by replacing
ax = sns.barplot(list(tags), list(tag_counts))
with
ax = sns.barplot(x=list(tags), y=list(tag_counts))

hey @naveeagrawal, thanks for sharing this. A few others brought this up too and it's due to Colab auto-upgrading their packages every so often (seaborn api changed). I was going to push the change but have a lot of changes coming soon so decided to wait. Also we won't be using Google colab anymore because it essentially causes projects like this to break every few months.
