How can I format a float using matplotlib's LaTeX formatter?

To format a float using matplotlib's LaTeX formatter, we can take the following steps −

Steps

Set the figure size and adjust the padding between and around the subplots.
Create x and y data points using numpy.
Plot the x and y data points using plot() method.
Fill the area between the curve.
Set the title of the figure with LaTeX representation.
To display the figure, use show() method.

Example

import numpy as np
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt

# Set the figures size
plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = [7.50, 3.50]
plt.rcParams["figure.autolayout"] = True

# x and y data points
x = np.linspace(-5, 5, 100)
y = x**3/3

# Plot the data points
plt.plot(x, y)

# Fill the area between the curve
plt.fill_between(x, y)

# LaTex representation
plt.title("$area=\int_a^b{x^2dx}$=83.3")

# Display the plot
plt.show()
