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_majorticklabels() Function
The Axis.get_majorticklabels() function in axis module of matplotlib library is used to get a list of Text instances for the major ticklabels.
Syntax: Axis.get_majorticklabels(self)
Parameters: This method does not accepts any parameter.
Return value: This method returns the list of Text instances for the major ticklabels.
Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.axis.Axis.get_majorticklabels() function in matplotlib.axis:
Example 1:
Python3
import numpy as np
from matplotlib.axis import Axis
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.ticker as ticker
np.random.seed( 19680801 )
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.plot( 100 * np.random.rand( 20 ))
formatter = ticker.FormatStrFormatter( '%1.2f' )
Axis.set_major_formatter(ax.yaxis, formatter)
print ( "Value of get_major_ticks() :" )
for i in ax.xaxis.get_majorticklabels():
print (i)
plt.title("Matplotlib.axis.Axis.get_majorticklabels()\n\
Function Example", fontsize = 12 , fontweight = 'bold' )
plt.show()
|
Output:
Value of get_majorticklabels() :
Text(0, 0, '')
Text(0, 0, '')
Text(0, 0, '')
Text(0, 0, '')
Text(0, 0, '')
Text(0, 0, '')
Text(0, 0, '')
Text(0, 0, '')
Text(0, 0, '')
Text(0, 0, '')
Example 2:
Python3
from matplotlib.axis import Axis
from matplotlib.artist import Artist
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
np.random.seed( 19680801 )
n = 100000
x = np.random.standard_normal(n)
y = 2 * np.random.standard_normal(n)
z = [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ]
xmin = x. min ()
xmax = x. max ()
ymin = y. min ()
ymax = y. max ()
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
hb = ax.hexbin(x, y,
gridsize = 50 ,
bins = 'log' ,
cmap = 'BuGn' )
ax. set (xlim = (xmin, xmax), ylim = (ymin, ymax))
ax.xaxis.set_ticklabels([ "A" , "B" , "C" , "D" , "E" , "F" , "G" , "H" , "I" , "J" , "K" ])
print ( "Value of get_majorticklabels() :" )
for i in ax.xaxis.get_majorticklabels():
print (i)
plt.title("Matplotlib.axis.Axis.get_majorticklabels()\n\
Function Example", fontsize = 12 , fontweight = 'bold' )
plt.show()
|
Output:
Value of get_majorticklabels() :
Text(0, 0, 'A')
Text(0, 0, 'B')
Text(0, 0, 'C')
Text(0, 0, 'D')
Text(0, 0, 'E')
Text(0, 0, 'F')
Text(0, 0, 'G')
Text(0, 0, 'H')
Text(0, 0, 'I')
Text(0, 0, 'J')
Text(0, 0, 'K')
