make several plots in python code example

Example 1: matplotlib multiple plots

fig = plt.figure()

# total_rows, total_columns, subplot_index(1st, 2nd, etc..)
plt.subplot(2, 2, 1)
plt.plot(x, y)

plt.subplot(2, 2, 2)
plt.plot(x, y)

plt.subplot(2, 2, 3)
plt.plot(x, y)

plt.subplot(2, 2, 4)
plt.plot(x, y)

Example 2: create plots with multiple dataframes python

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

scenarios = ['scen-1', 'scen-2']

fig, ax = plt.subplots()

for index, item in enumerate(scenarios):
    df = pd.DataFrame({'A' : np.random.randn(4)})
    print df
    df.plot(ax=ax)

plt.ylabel('y-label')
plt.xlabel('x-label')
plt.title('Title')
plt.show()
