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.get_gridlines() Function
The Axis.get_gridlines() function in axis module of matplotlib library is used to get the grid lines as a list of Line2D instance.
Syntax: Axis.get_gridlines(self)
Parameters: This method does not accepts any parameters.
Return value: This method returns the grid lines as a list of Line2D instance.
Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.axis.Axis.get_gridlines() function in matplotlib.axis:
Example 1:
Python3
# Implementation of matplotlib function from matplotlib.axis import Axis import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import random fig, ax2 = plt.subplots() x = [] for i in range(1,11): j = random.randint(1,10) x.append(i*j) ax2.plot(x) print("Value of get_gridlines() :") for i in ax2.xaxis.get_gridlines(): print(i) fig.suptitle("Matplotlib.axis.Axis.get_gridlines()\ Function Example", fontsize = 12, fontweight ='bold') plt.show() |
Output:
Value of get_gridlines() : Line2D((0,0),(0,1)) Line2D((0,0),(0,1)) Line2D((0,0),(0,1)) Line2D((0,0),(0,1)) Line2D((0,0),(0,1)) Line2D((0,0),(0,1)) Line2D((0,0),(0,1))
Example 2:
Python3
# Implementation of matplotlib function from matplotlib.axis import Axis import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import matplotlib.text fig, ax = plt.subplots() ax.plot([5,1], label="Label 1") ax.plot([3,0], label="Label 2") legend = ax.legend(loc="upper right") offset = matplotlib.text.OffsetFrom(legend, (1.0, 0.0)) ax.annotate("String - Info", xy = (0,0), size = 14, xycoords = 'figure fraction', xytext = (0,-20), textcoords = offset, horizontalalignment = 'right', verticalalignment = 'top') fig.canvas.draw() ax.grid() print("Value of get_gridlines() :") for i in ax.yaxis.get_gridlines(): print(i) fig.suptitle("Matplotlib.axis.Axis.get_gridlines()\ Function Example", fontsize = 12, fontweight ='bold') plt.show() |
Output:
Value of get_gridlines() : Line2D((0,0),(1,0)) Line2D((0,0),(1,0)) Line2D((0,0),(1,0)) Line2D((0,0),(1,0)) Line2D((0,0),(1,0)) Line2D((0,0),(1,0)) Line2D((0,0),(1,0)) Line2D((0,0),(1,0))
