How to hide in IPython notebook?


To hide matplotlib.lines.Line2D instance while calling the plot() method, we can take the following steps −

  • Import numpy as np.

  • From matplotlib, import pyplot as plt.

  • Create points for x, i.e., np.linspace(1, 10, 1000)

  • Now plot the line using the plot() method.

  • To hide the instance, use plt.plot(x); (with semi colon)

  • Or, use _ = plt.plot(x).

Example

In [1]: import numpy as np
In [2]: from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
In [3]: x = np.linspace(1, 10, 1000)
In [4]: plt.plot(x)
Out[4]: []
In [5]: plt.plot(x);
In [6]: _ = plt.plot(x)
In [7]:

Output

Out[4]: [<matplotlib.lines.Line2D at 0x7faa3852fac8>]
