In this article, we will discuss how to add a title to Seaborn Plots in Python.
Method 1: Adding title using set method
set method takes 1 argument “title” as a parameter which stores Title of a plot.
Syntax
set(title=”Title of a plot”)
Example:
Here, we are going to create a dataframe with months and average temperatures
Python3
# import necessary packages import pandas as pd import seaborn as sns # create a dataframe temperature = pd.DataFrame({'Month': ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec'], 'Avg_Temperatures': [22, 25, 28, 32, 35, 44, 38, 32, 25, 23, 20, 18]}) # plot a line plot and set title sns.lineplot(x='Month', y='Avg_Temperatures', data=temperature).set( title="Monthly Avg Temperatures") |
Output
Method 2: Adding title using suptitle method
suptitle method takes a string which is title of plot as parameter.
Syntax
fig.suptitle(‘Title of plot’)
Example:
Python3
# import necessary packages import pandas as pd import seaborn as sns # create a dataframe temperature = pd.DataFrame({'Month': ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec'], 'Avg_Temperatures': [22, 25, 28, 32, 35, 44, 38, 32, 25, 23, 20, 18]}) # plot a rel-plot plot = sns.relplot(x='Month', y='Avg_Temperatures', data=temperature) # add title using suptitle plot.fig.suptitle('Monthly Avg Temperatures') |
Output
Method 3: Adding title using set_title
set_title method takes a string as parameter which is title of plot.
Syntax
set_title(‘Title of plot’)
Example:
Python3
# import necessary packages import pandas as pd import seaborn as sns # create a dataframe temperature = pd.DataFrame({'Month': ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec'], 'Avg_Temperatures': [22, 25, 28, 32, 35, 44, 38, 32, 25, 23, 20, 18]}) # plot a bar plot and add title using set_title plot = sns.barplot(x='Month', y='Avg_Temperatures', data=temperature).set_title('Monthly Avg Temperatures') |
Output
