How to print the Y-axis label horizontally in a Matplotlib/Pylab chart?
Just by using plt.ylabel(rotation='horizontal'), we can align a label according to our requirement.StepsPlot the lines using [0, 5] and [0, 5] lists.Set the y-label for Y-axis, using ylabel method by passing rotation='horizontal'.Set the x-label for X-axis, using xlabel method.To show the plot, use plt.show() method.Examplefrom matplotlib import pyplot as plt plt.plot([0, 5], [0, 5]) plt.ylabel("Y-axis ", rotation='horizontal') plt.xlabel("X-axis ") plt.show()Output

By creating a 3D projection on the axis and iterating that axis for different angles using view_init(), we can rotate the output diagram.StepsCreate a new figure, or activate an existing figure.Add an `~.axes.Axes` to the figure as part of a subplot arrangement with nrow = 1, ncols = 1, index = 1, and projection = '3d'.Use the method, get_test_data to return a tuple X, Y, Z with a test dataset.Plot a 3D wireframe with data test data x, y, and z.To make it rotatable, we can set the elevation and azimuth of the axes in degrees (not radians), using view_init() ...

Use the plot method of matplotlib and set the legend with different sets of colors.StepsSet the X-axis label using plt.xlabel() method.Set the Y-axis label using plt.ylabel() method.Plot the lines using plt.plot() method with [9, 5], [2, 5] and [4, 7, 8] array.Initialize two variables; location = 0 for the best location and border_drawn_flag = True (True, if border to be drawn for legend. False, if border is not drawn).Use plt.legend() method for the legend and set the location and border_drawn_flag accordingly to get the perfect legend in the diagram.Show the figure using plt.show() method.Exampleimport matplotlib.pyplot as plt plt.ylabel("Y-axis ") ...
Read MoreDrawing average line in histogram in Matplotlib
We can plot some expressions using the hist method. After that, we will plot the average graph for the expression using the plot method and bins that are returned while creating the hist.StepsGet the data for x using some equations, set num_bins = 50.Create fig and ax variables using subplots method, where default nrows and ncols are 1.Get n, bins, patches value using ax.hist() method.Plot average lines using bins and y data that is obtained from some equations.Set the X-axis label using plt.xlabel() method.Set the Y-axis label using plt.ylabel() method.Set a title for the axes.Using tight_layout(), we can adjust the ...
Read MoreHow to turn on minor ticks only on the y-axis Matplotlib?
First, we can create fig, ax using subplots() and then, we can plot the lines. After that, using ax.yaxis.set_minor_locator(tck.AutoMinorLocator()), we can turn on the minor ticks.StepsCreate fig and ax variables using subplots method, where default nrows and ncols are 1.Plot the line using two lists.Set the locator of the minor ticker.Dynamically find minor tick positions based on the positions of major ticks. The scale must be linear with major ticks evenly spaced.Using plt.show() method, we can show the figure.Exampleimport matplotlib.pyplot as plt import matplotlib.ticker as tck fig, ax = plt.subplots() plt.plot([0, 2, 4], [3, 6, 1]) ax.yaxis.set_minor_locator(tck.AutoMinorLocator()) plt.show()Output
Read MoreHow to zoom subplots together in Matplotlib/Pyplot?
We can use the attribute sharex = "ax1", and then, use the subplot method to zoom the subplots together.StepsAdd a subplot to the current figure with (nrow = 1, ncols = 2, index = 1).Add line on the current subplot with (nrow = 1, ncols = 2, index = 1).Add a subplot to the current figure with (nrow = 1, ncols = 2, index = 2).Add line on the current subplot with (nrow = 1, ncols = 2, index = 2), where sharex can help to share the x or y `~matplotlib.axis` with sharex and/or sharey. The axis will have ...
Read MoreMultiple axes in Matplotlib with different scales
In the following code, we will see how to create a shared Y-axis.StepsCreate fig and ax variables using subplots method, where default nrows and ncols are 1.Plot line with lists passed in the argument of plot() method with color="red".Create a twin of Axes with a shared X-axis but independent Y-axis.Plot the line on ax2 that is created in step 3.Adjust the padding between and around subplots.To show the figure use plt.show() method.Exampleimport matplotlib.pyplot as plt fig, ax1 = plt.subplots() ax1.plot([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [3, 5, 7, 1, 9], color='red') ax2 = ax1.twinx() ax2.plot([11, 12, 31, 41, 15], [13, 51, ...
Read MorePrevent scientific notation in matplotlib.pyplot
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

The shape property is usually used to get the current shape of an array, but it may also be used to reshape the array in-place by assigning a tuple of array dimensions to it.StepsGet an array Y using np.array method.Y.shape would return a tuple (4, ).Y.shape[0] method would return 4, i.e., the first element of the tuple.Exampleimport numpy as np Y = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4]) print("Output of .show method would be: ", Y.shape, " for ", Y) print("Output of .show[0] method would be: ", Y.shape[0], " for ", Y) print("Output for i in range(Y.shape[0]): ", end=" ") for ...
