Improve Matplotlib Plot Quality
Matplotlib plots in Jupyter Notebook can appear dull and blurry when scaled. A useful hack is to render plots as SVGs (Scalable Vector Graphics) instead of the default image format. This ensures high-quality plots that remain sharp even when zoomed. Use either `from matplotlib_inline.backend_inline import set_matplotlib_formats` with `set_matplotlib_formats('svg')` or `%config InlineBackend.figure_format = 'svg'` to implement this improvement in your notebooks.
