Matplotlib is a library in Python and it is numerical – mathematical extension for NumPy library. Pyplot is a state-based interface to a Matplotlib module which provides a MATLAB-like interface. There are various plots which can be used in Pyplot are Line Plot, Contour, Histogram, Scatter, 3D Plot, etc.
matplotlib.pyplot.clf() Function
The clf() function in pyplot module of matplotlib library is used to clear the current figure.
Syntax:
matplotlib.pyplot.clf()
Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.pyplot.clf() function in matplotlib.pyplot:
Example 1:
Python3
# Implementation of matplotlib functionimport matplotlib.pyplot as plt plt.plot([1, 2, 3, 4], [16, 4, 1, 8]) plt.clf()plt.title('matplotlib.pyplot.clf Example')plt.show() |
Output:
Example 2:
Python3
# Implementation of matplotlib functionimport numpy as npimport matplotlib.pyplot as plt t = np.linspace(0.0, 2.0, 201)s = np.sin(2 * np.pi * t)plt.ylabel('y-axis')plt.xlabel('x-axis')plt.plot(t, s)plt.grid(True)plt.clf()plt.title('matplotlib.pyplot.clf Example')plt.show() |
Output:
Before using clf() function
After using clf() function
