I need help with setting the limits of y-axis on matplotlib. Here is the code that I tried, unsuccessfully.
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.figure(1, figsize = (8.5,11))
plt.suptitle('plot title')
ax = []
aPlot = plt.subplot(321, axisbg = 'w', title = "Year 1")
ax.append(aPlot)
plt.plot(paramValues,plotDataPrice[0], color = '#340B8C',
marker = 'o', ms = 5, mfc = '#EB1717')
plt.xticks(paramValues)
plt.ylabel('Average Price')
plt.xlabel('Mark-up')
plt.grid(True)
plt.ylim((25,250))
With the data I have for this plot, I get y-axis limits of 20 and 200. However, I want the limits 20 and 250.
plt.show()
at the end to show the plot. Which version and which backend are you using? – Tamásplt.ylim((25,250))
andplt.ylim(ymax = 250, ymin = 25)
. I am using theAgg
backend. – Manoj Govindanaxisbg
is now deprecated – SherylHohmanplt.ylim
is the correct, modern solution to this problem. Here is a good resource: showmecode.info/matplotlib/axes/set-limits – luc
