Matplotlib is a comprehensive library for creating static, animated,and interactive visualizations in Python.
Matplotlib makes easy things easy and hard things possible.
Feb 19, 2021 Define the x-axis and corresponding y-axis values as lists. Plot them on canvas using.plot function. Give a name to x-axis and y-axis using.xlabel and.ylabel functions. Give a title to your plot using.title function. May 20, 2019 However this is intended as a minimal guide to understand a minimal set of codes needed for 2D plotting. G-Codes for 2D Plotting.

Toolkits¶
Matplotlib ships with several add-on toolkits,including 3D plotting with mplot3d, axes helpers in axes_grid1 and axishelpers in axisartist.
Third party packages¶
A large number of third party packagesextend and build on Matplotlib functionality, including several higher-levelplotting interfaces (seaborn, HoloViews, ggplot, ...), and a projectionand mapping toolkit (Cartopy).
Citing Matplotlib¶
Matplotlib is the brainchild of John Hunter (1968-2012), who, along with itsmany contributors, have put an immeasurable amount of time and effort intoproducing a piece of software utilized by thousands of scientists worldwide.
If Matplotlib contributes to a project that leads to a scientific publication,please acknowledge this work by citing the project. A ready-made citationentry is available.
Open source¶
Matplotlib is a Sponsored Project of NumFOCUS, a 501(c)(3) nonprofitcharity in the United States. NumFOCUS provides Matplotlib withfiscal, legal, and administrative support to help ensure the healthand sustainability of the project. Visit numfocus.org for moreinformation.
