matplotlib scatter plot parameters code example

Example 1: matplotlib scatter plot python

import numpy as np
np.random.seed(19680801)
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt


fig, ax = plt.subplots()
for color in ['tab:blue', 'tab:orange', 'tab:green']:
    n = 750
    x, y = np.random.rand(2, n)
    scale = 200.0 * np.random.rand(n)
    ax.scatter(x, y, c=color, s=scale, label=color,
               alpha=0.3, edgecolors='none')

ax.legend()
ax.grid(True)

plt.show()

Example 2: matplotlib scatter

# Import packages
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
%matplotlib inline

# Create the plot
fig, ax = plt.subplots()

# Plot with scatter()
ax.scatter(x, y)

# Set x and y axes labels, legend, and title
ax.set_title("Title")
ax.set_xlabel("X_Label")
ax.set_ylabel("Y_Label")
