I have this graph displaying the following:
plt.plot(valueX, scoreList)
plt.xlabel("Score number") # Text for X-Axis
plt.ylabel("Score") # Text for Y-Axis
plt.title("Scores for the topic "+progressDisplay.topicName)
plt.show()
valueX = [1, 2, 3, 4] and scoreList = [5, 0, 0, 2]
I want the scale to go up in 1's, no matter what values are in 'scoreList'. Currently get my x-axis going up in .5 instead of 1s.
How do I set it so it goes up only in 1?
Just set the xticks yourself.
plt.xticks([1,2,3,4])
or
plt.xticks(valueX)
Since the range functions happens to work with integers you could use that instead:
plt.xticks(range(1, 5))
Or be even more dynamic and calculate it from the data:
plt.xticks(range(min(valueX), max(valueX)+1))
Below is my favorite way to set the scale of axes:
plt.xlim(-0.02, 0.05)
plt.ylim(-0.04, 0.04)
Hey it looks like you need to set the x axis scale.
Try
matplotlib.axes.Axes.set_xscale(1, 'linear')
plt.gca().set_xscale('linear'). Otherwise you'll get AttributeError: 'function' object has no attribute 'Axes' from writing plt.axes.Axes and TypeError: set_xscale() takes 2 positional arguments but 3 were given from writing set_xscale(1, 'linear').
