Plot a circle with an edgecolor in Matplotlib
To plot a circle with an edgecolor in matplotlib, we can take the following Steps −
Create a new figure or activate an existing figure using figure() method.
Add a subplot method to the current axis.
Create a circle instance using Circle() class with an edgecolor and linewidth of the edge.
Add a circle path on the plot.
To place the text in the circle, we can use text() method.
Scale the X and Y axes using xlim() and ylim() methods.
To display the figure, use show() method.
Example
import matplotlib from matplotlib import pyplot as plt, patches plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = [7.00, 3.50] plt.rcParams["figure.autolayout"] = True fig = plt.figure() ax = fig.add_subplot(111) circle = matplotlib.patches.Circle((0, 0), radius=1, edgecolor="orange", linewidth=7) ax.add_patch(circle) plt.text(-.25, 0, "Circle") plt.xlim([-4, 4]) plt.ylim([-4, 4]) plt.axis('equal') plt.show()
