Automatically setting Y-axis limits for a bar graph using Matplotlib
To set Y-axis limit, we can use ylim() method and put maximum and minimum limit values.
Steps
- Set the figure size and adjust the padding between and around the subplots.
- Create two lists for data points.
- Make two variables for max and min values for Y-axis.
- Use ylim() method to limit the Y-axis range.
- Use bar() method to plot the bars.
- To display the figure, use show() method.
Example
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = [7.50, 3.50] plt.rcParams["figure.autolayout"] = True x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] y = [8, 4, 6, 1, 3] max_y_lim = max(y) + .5 min_y_lim = min(y) plt.ylim(min_y_lim, max_y_lim) plt.bar(x, y) plt.show()
