Matplotlib - (all functions)

 



Plot is mainly intended for interactive plots and simple cases of programmatic plot generation:

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
x = np.arange(0, 5, 0.1)
y = np.sin(x)
plt.plot(x, y)

The object-oriented API is recommended for more complex plots.
