import numpy as np  
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt  
        
    
d = np.arange(49).reshape(7, 7)  
xx, yy = np.meshgrid(np.arange(8), np.arange(8))  
        
fig, ax = plt.subplots()  
        
ax.set_aspect(1)  
ax.pcolormesh(xx, yy, d)  
      
ax.text(2.4, 6.5, "Zorder Value : "
        + str(Axis.get_zorder(ax)),  
        fontweight ="bold")
