Matplotlib.axis.Axis.cla() function in Python

Matplotlib is a library in Python and it is numerical – mathematical extension for NumPy library. It is an amazing visualization library in Python for 2D plots of arrays and used for working with the broader SciPy stack.

matplotlib.axis.Axis.cla() Function

The Axis.cla() function in axis module of matplotlib library is used to clear this axis.

Syntax: Axis.cla(self)

Parameters: This method does not accepts any parameter.

Return value: This method does not returns any value.

Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.axis.Axis.cla() function in matplotlib.axis:

Example 1:

Python3

# Implementation of matplotlib function
from matplotlib.axis import Axis 
from matplotlib.artist import Artist  
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt   
  
# providing values to x and y   
x = [8, 5, 11, 13, 16, 23]  
y = [14, 8, 21, 7, 12, 15]  
    
fig, ax = plt.subplots()  
ax.plot(x, y)
ax.set_xlabel("X-axis")
ax.set_ylabel("Y-axis")

Axis.cla(ax.xaxis)
Axis.cla(ax.yaxis)

plt.title("Matplotlib.axis.Axis.cla()\n\
Function Example", fontsize = 12, fontweight ='bold') 
plt.show()

Output:

Example 2:

Python3

# Implementation of matplotlib function 
import numpy as np
from matplotlib.axis import Axis  
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt   
  
t = np.linspace(0.0, 2.0, 201) 
s = np.sin(2 * np.pi * t) 
  
fig, ax= plt.subplots()

ax.plot(t, s) 
ax.grid(True)
ax.set_ylabel('y-axis', fontweight ='bold') 
ax.set_xlabel('x-axis', fontweight ='bold') 

Axis.cla(ax.yaxis)

plt.title("Matplotlib.axis.Axis.cla()\n\
Function Example", fontsize = 12, fontweight ='bold') 
plt.show()
