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.rcdefaults() Function
The rcdefaults() function in pyplot module of matplotlib library is used to restore the rc params from Matplotlib’s internal default style.
Syntax: matplotlib.pyplot.rcdefaults()
Parameters: This method does not accepts any parameter.
Returns: This method does not return any value.
Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.pyplot.rcdefaults() function in matplotlib.pyplot:
Example 1:
# implementation of the matplotlib function import matplotlib.pyplot as plt plt.subplot(211) plt.rc('font', weight ='bold') plt.rc('xtick.major', size = 5, pad = 7) plt.rc('xtick', labelsize = 15) plt.plot([1, 2, 3]) plt.text(0.4, 3.5, 'matplotlib.pyplot.rcdefaults() Example') plt.rcdefaults() plt.subplot(212) plt.plot([1, 2, 3]) plt.grid(True) plt.show() |
Output:
Example 2:
# implementation of the matplotlib function import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np np.random.seed(19680801) plt.rcdefaults() fig, ax = plt.subplots() people = ('Geek1', 'Geek2', 'Geek3', 'Geek4', 'Geek5') y_pos = np.arange(len(people)) performance = 3 + 5 * np.random.rand(len(people)) error = np.random.rand(len(people)) ax.bar(y_pos, performance, xerr = error, align ='center') ax.set_yticks(y_pos) ax.set_yticklabels(people) ax.invert_yaxis() plt.grid(True) plt.title('matplotlib.pyplot.rcdefaults() Example') plt.show() |
Output:
