change color of scatter plot python code example

Example 1: plt.scatter set color in rgb

X = [0, 1, 2]
Y = [0, 1, 2]
Z = [0, 1, 2]
C = np.array([[255, 0, 0], [0, 255, 0], [0, 0, 255]])
fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111, projection = '3d')

ax.scatter(X, Y, Z, c = C/255.0)
plt.show()

Example 2: scatter plot color by value

from matplotlib import pyplot as plt

x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
y = [125, 32, 54, 253, 67, 87, 233, 56, 67]

color = [str(item/255.) for item in y]

plt.scatter(x, y, s=500, c=color)

plt.show()
