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.clim() Function
The clim() function in pyplot module of matplotlib library is used to set the color limits of the current image.
Syntax: matplotlib.pyplot.clim(vmin=None, vmax=None)
Parameters: This method accepts only two parameters.
- vmin, vmax : These parameters are used for color scaling.
Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.pyplot.clim() function in matplotlib.pyplot:
Example 1:
# Implementation of matplotlib function import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np from matplotlib.colors import LogNorm dx, dy = 0.015, 0.05y, x = np.mgrid[slice(-4, 4 + dy, dy), slice(-4, 4 + dx, dx)] z = (1 - x / 3. + x ** 5 + y ** 5) * np.exp(-x ** 2 - y ** 2) z = z[:-1, :-1] z_min, z_max = -np.abs(z).max(), np.abs(z).max() im = plt.imshow(z, cmap ='Greens', vmin = z_min, vmax = z_max, extent = [x.min(), x.max(), y.min(), y.max()], interpolation ='nearest', origin ='lower') plt.clim(vmin = 0, vmax = 2) plt.title('matplotlib.pyplot.clim Example') plt.show() |
Output:
Example 2:
# Implementation of matplotlib function import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np from matplotlib.colors import LogNorm dx, dy = 0.015, 0.05x = np.arange(-4.0, 4.0, dx) y = np.arange(-4.0, 4.0, dy) X, Y = np.meshgrid(x, y) extent = np.min(x), np.max(x), np.min(y), np.max(y) Z1 = np.add.outer(range(8), range(8)) % 2plt.imshow(Z1, cmap ="binary_r", interpolation ='nearest', extent = extent, alpha = 1) def Lazyroar(x, y): return (1 - x / 2 + x**5 + y**6) * np.exp(-(x**2 + y**2)) Z2 = Lazyroar(X, Y) plt.imshow(Z2, cmap ="Greens", alpha = 0.7, interpolation ='bilinear', extent = extent) plt.clim(0, 2) plt.title('matplotlib.pyplot.clim Example') plt.show() |
Output:
