How to put gap between Y-axis and the first bar in a vertical barchart in Matplotlib?
To put gap between Y-axis and the first bar in vertical barchart, we can reduce the X-axis scale.
Steps
- Set the figure size and adjust the padding between and around the subplots.
- Create lists x_val, x_names andvaldata points. Also, initialize width and interval variables.
- Make a bar plot using bar() method.
- Get or set the current tick locations and labels of the X-axis.
- Get or set the current tick locations and labels of the Y-axis.
- Get or set the x limits of the current axes.
- 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_val = range(5) x_names = ["one", "two", "three", "four", "five"] y_val = [10, 30, 40, 20, 15] width = 0.25 interval = 10 plt.bar(x_val, y_val, width=width, align='center') plt.xticks(x_val, x_names) plt.yticks(range(0, max(y_val), interval)) plt.xlim([min(x_val) - 0.5, max(x_val) + 0.5]) plt.show()
