Using Pandas, we will create a dataframe and set the vertical lines on the created axes, using axvline lines.StepsUsing panda we can create a data frame.Creating a data frame would help to create help.Using axvline(), add a vertical line across the axes, where color is green, linestyle="dashed".Using axvline(), add a vertical line across the axes, where color is red, linestyle="dashed".Using plt.show(), show the plot.Exampleimport pandas as pd from matplotlib import pyplot as plt df = pd.DataFrame(index=pd.date_range("2019-07-01", "2019-07-31")) df["y"] = 1 ax = df.plot() ax.axvline("2019-07-24", color="green", linestyle="dashed") ax.axvline("2019-07-31", color="red", linestyle="dashed") plt.show()OutputRead More

In this program, we will draw a filled polygon using the opencv function fillPoly(). The function takes in an image and the endpoints of the polygon.AlgorithmStep 1: Import cv2 and numpy. Step 2: Define the endpoints. Step 3: Define the image using zeros. Step 4: Draw the polygon using the fillpoly() function. Step 5: Display the output.Example Codeimport cv2 import numpy as np contours = np.array([[50,50], [50,150], [150,150], [150,50]]) image = np.zeros((200,200)) cv2.fillPoly(image, pts = [contours], color =(255,255,255)) cv2.imshow("filledPolygon", image)Output

To prevent scientific notation, we must pass style='plain' in the ticklabel_format method.StepsPass two lists to draw a line using plot() method.Using ticklabel_format() method with style='plain'. If a parameter is not set, the corresponding property of the formatter is left unchanged. Style='plain' turns off scientific notation.To show the figure, use plt.show() method.Examplefrom matplotlib import pyplot as plt plt.plot([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [11, 12, 13, 14, 15]) plt.ticklabel_format(style='plain')    # to prevent scientific notation. plt.show()Output
