Example 1: how to plot a scatter plot in matplotlib

# Import matplotlib
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Set plot space as inline for inline plots and qt for external plots
%matplotlib inline


# Set the figure size in inches
plt.figure(figsize=(10,6))

# Median Developer Salaries by Age
dev_x = [25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35]

dev_y = [38496, 42000, 46752, 49320, 53200,
         56000, 62316, 64928, 67317, 68748, 73752]

plt.plot(dev_x, dev_y)
plt.xlabel('Ages')
plt.ylabel('Median Salary (USD)')
plt.title('Median Salary (USD) by Age')
plt.show()
