Plots in
In matplotlib, we use the pyplot.xlabel() and pyplot.ylabel() functions to label the x and y-axis of the plot, respectively.
Let’s create a plot and label its x and y-axes as follows:
import matplotlib.pyplot as pltimport numpy as npx = np.array([1, 5])y = np.array([10, 20])plt.plot(x, y)# using the xlabel and ylabel functionsplt.xlabel("x axis")plt.ylabel("y axis")plt.show()
pyplot module from the matplot library.numpy module.numpy.array() method to create an array variable x.numpy.array() method to create another array variable, y.pyplot.plot() method to plot y against x (that is, x on the x-axis and y on the y-axis).pyplot.xlabel() method to label the x-axis of our plot.pyplot.ylabel() method to label the y-axis of our plot.pyplot.show() method to ask Python to show us our plot.In Matplotlib, we use the pyplot.title() method to give a title to a plot.
Let’s create a plot and give it a title, as follows:
import matplotlib.pyplot as pltimport numpy as npx= np.array([1, 5])y = np.array([10, 20])plt.plot(x, y)# usig the title() methodplt.title('Y against X')# using the xlabel() and ylabel() methodsplt.xlabel("x axis")plt.ylabel("y axis")plt.show()
