It is quite easy to change the x or y range using matplotlib.pyplot.xlim() and matplotlib.pyplot.ylim() from the Matplotlib is a library in Python. This function in pyplot module of matplotlib library is used to get or set the x-limits/ y-limits of the current axes and returns the tuple of the new x-axis/y-axis limits.
Syntax: matplotlib.pyplot.xlim(*args, **kwargs)
Parameters:
*args:
- left: This parameter is used to set the xlim/ylim to left.
- right: This parameter is used to set the xlim/ylim to right.
**kwargs: This is Text properties that is used to control the appearance of the labels.
Example 1: Without using matplotlib.pyplot.xlim()/matplotlib.pyplot.ylim() function.
Python3
import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt x = [0, 5, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25] y = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] plt.plot(x, y) plt.show() |
Output:
Example 2: With the matplotlib.pyplot.xlim()/matplotlib.pyplot.ylim() function.
Python3
import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt x = [0,5,9,10,15,20,25] y = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6] plt.xlim([-40, 40]) plt.ylim([-40, 40]) plt.plot(x,y) plt.show() |
