How to hide axes and gridlines in Matplotlib?

Matplotlib Server Side Programming Programming

To hide axes (X and Y) and gridlines, we can take the following steps −

Create x and y points using numpy.
Plot a horizontal line (y=0) for X-Axis, using the plot() method with linestyle, labels.
Plot x and y points using the plot() method with linestyle, labels.
To hide the grid, use plt.grid(False).
To hide the axes, use plt.axis('off')
To activate the labels' legend, use the legend() method.
To display the figure, use the show() method.

Example

import numpy as np
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = [7.50, 3.50]
plt.rcParams["figure.autolayout"] = True
x = np.linspace(-10, 10, 50)
y = np.sin(x)
plt.axhline(y=0, c="green", linestyle="dashdot", label="y=0")
plt.plot(x, y, c="red", lw=5, linestyle="dashdot", label="y=sin(x)")
plt.grid(False)
plt.axis('off')
plt.legend()
plt.show()
