Matplotlib is a plotting library for creating static, animated, and interactive visualizations in Python. Pyplot is a Matplotlib module which provides a MATLAB-like interface. Matplotlib is designed to be as usable as MATLAB, with the ability to use Python and the advantage of being free and open-source.
matplotlib.pyplot.axis()
This function is used to set some axis properties to the graph.
Syntax: matplotlib.pyplot.axis(*args, emit=True, **kwargs)
Parameters:
xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax:These parameters can be used to
set the axis limits on the graph
emit:Its a bool value used to notify observers of the axis limit change
Example #1:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt x =[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]y =[2, 4, 6, 8, 10] # Plotting the graphplt.plot(x, y) # Setting the x-axis to 1-10# and y-axis to 1-15plt.axis([0, 10, 1, 15]) # Showing the graph with updated axisplt.show() |
Output:
Example #2:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt x =[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]y =[2, 4, 6, 8, 10] plt.plot(x, y) # we can turn off the axis and display# only the line by passing the # optional parameter 'off' to itplt.axis('off') plt.show() |
Output:
