Matplotlib is a library in Python and it is numerical – mathematical extension for NumPy library. The Axes Class contains most of the figure elements: Axis, Tick, Line2D, Text, Polygon, etc., and sets the coordinate system. And the instances of Axes supports callbacks through a callbacks attribute.
matplotlib.axes.Axes.get_yticks() Function
The Axes.get_yticks() function in axes module of matplotlib library is used to return the y ticks as a list of locations.
Syntax: Axes.get_yticks(self, minor=False)
Parameters: This method accepts the following parameters.
- minor : This parameter is used whether set major ticks or to set minor ticks
Return value: This method does not returns any value
Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.axes.Axes.get_yticks() function in matplotlib.axes:
Example 1:
# Implementation of matplotlib function import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import matplotlib.transforms as mtransforms fig, ax = plt.subplots() ax.plot(range(12, 24), range(12)) ax.set_yticks((2, 5, 7, 10)) w = ax.get_yticks() ax.text(15, 9, "ytick values : "+str(w), fontweight ="bold") fig.suptitle('matplotlib.axes.Axes.get_yticks() \ function Example\n\n', fontweight ="bold") plt.show() |
Output:
Example 2:
# Implementation of matplotlib function import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np import matplotlib.mlab as mlab import matplotlib.gridspec as gridspec fs = 1000t = np.linspace(0, 0.3, 301) A = np.array([2, 8]).reshape(-1, 1) f = np.array([150, 140]).reshape(-1, 1) xn = (A * np.sin(2 * np.pi * f * t)).sum(axis = 0) xn += 5 * np.random.randn(*t.shape) fig, ax = plt.subplots() yticks = np.arange(-50, 30, 10) ax.psd(xn, NFFT = 301, Fs = fs, window = mlab.window_none, pad_to = 1024, scale_by_freq = True) ax.set_yticks(yticks) ax.grid(True) w = ax.get_yticks() ax.text(80, 12, "ytick values : "+str(w), fontweight ="bold") fig.suptitle('matplotlib.axes.Axes.get_yticks() \ function Example\n\n', fontweight ="bold") plt.show() |
Output:
