scatter3D matplotlib code example

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))

plt.scatter(x, y, label = "label_name" )

# Set x and y axes labels
plt.xlabel('X Values')
plt.ylabel('Y Values')

plt.title('Scatter Title')
plt.legend()
plt.show()

Example 2: plot 3d points in python

from mpl_toolkits.mplot3d import Axes3D
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt



fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111, projection='3d')

x =[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]
y =[5,6,2,3,13,4,1,2,4,8]
z =[2,3,3,3,5,7,9,11,9,10]



ax.scatter(x, y, z, c='r', marker='o')

ax.set_xlabel('X Label')
ax.set_ylabel('Y Label')
ax.set_zlabel('Z Label')

plt.show()
