data visualization bar chart python code example

Example 1: how to plotting bar on matplotlib

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt 

data = [5., 25., 50., 20.]
plt.bar(range(len(data)),data)
plt.show()

// to set the thickness of a bar, we can set 'width'
// plt.bar(range(len(data)), data, width = 1.)

Example 2: bar chart in python

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt; plt.rcdefaults()import numpy as npimport matplotlib.pyplot as pltobjects = ('Python', 'C++', 'Java', 'Perl', 'Scala', 'Lisp')y_pos = np.arange(len(objects))performance = [10,8,6,4,2,1]plt.bar(y_pos, performance, align='center', alpha=0.5)plt.xticks(y_pos, objects)plt.ylabel('Usage')plt.title('Programming language usage')plt.show()
