Plot y versus x as lines and/or markers.
Subplot definition, a secondary or subordinate plot, as in a play, novel, or other literary work; underplot. Plot.ted, plot.ting. A secret plan or scheme to accomplish a usu. The main story of a literary or dramatic work. A small piece of ground: a garden plot. Although today the word plot often carries an implication of secrecy or ill intent, the 'plot' used in the formation of 'marplot' simply meant 'a plan for the accomplishment of something.' ‘The plot of a film noir, generically speaking, is an ironic romance in which the knight's quest is driven by vice instead of virtue.' ‘As promised in the title, the main plot of the novel revolves around a surgical operation of epic proportions.'. Corporation definition, an association of individuals, created by law or under authority of law, having a continuous existence independent of the existences of its members, and powers and liabilities distinct from those of its members.
Call signatures:
The coordinates of the points or line nodes are given by x, y.
The optional parameter fmt is a convenient way for defining basicformatting like color, marker and linestyle. It's a shortcut stringnotation described in the Notes section below.
You can use Line2D
properties as keyword arguments for morecontrol on the appearance. Line properties and fmt can be mixed.The following two calls yield identical results:
When conflicting with fmt, keyword arguments take precedence.
Plotting labelled data
There's a convenient way for plotting objects with labelled data (i.e.data that can be accessed by index obj['y']
). Instead of givingthe data in x and y, you can provide the object in the dataparameter and just give the labels for x and y:
All indexable objects are supported. This could e.g. be a dict
, apandas.DataFame
or a structured numpy array.
Plotting multiple sets of data
Qtwebengineprocess mac. There are various ways to plot multiple sets of data.
The most straight forward way is just to call
plot
multiple times.Example:Alternatively, if your data is already a 2d array, you can pass itdirectly to x, y. A separate data set will be drawn for everycolumn.
Example: an array
a
where the first column represents the xvalues and the other columns are the y columns:The third way is to specify multiple sets of [x], y, [fmt]groups:
In this case, any additional keyword argument applies to alldatasets. Also this syntax cannot be combined with the dataparameter.
By default, each line is assigned a different style specified by a'style cycle'. The fmt and line property parameters are onlynecessary if you want explicit deviations from these defaults.Alternatively, you can also change the style cycle usingrcParams['axes.prop_cycle']
(default: cycler('color', ['#1f77b4', '#ff7f0e', '#2ca02c', '#d62728', '#9467bd', '#8c564b', '#e377c2', '#7f7f7f', '#bcbd22', '#17becf'])).

Notes
Format Strings
A format string consists of a part for color, marker and line:
Each of them is optional. If not provided, the value from the stylecycle is used. Exception: If line
is given, but no marker
,the data will be a line without markers.
Other combinations such as [color][marker][line]
are alsosupported, but note that their parsing may be ambiguous.

If the color is the only part of the format string, you canadditionally use any matplotlib.colors
spec, e.g. full names('green'
) or hex strings ('#008000'
).
