I'm trying to use a bar chart to visualize my csv data. The data looks like this:
question,count_1,count_2,count_3,count_4,count_5
Q1,0,0,6,0,0
Q2,6,0,0,0,0
Q3,3,2,1,0,0
Q4,0,0,6,0,0
Q5,6,0,0,0,0
Q6,0,6,0,0,0
Q7,6,0,0,0,0
Q8,0,0,0,5,1
Q9,1,4,0,0,1
Q10,0,0,1,5,0
Here is my code
import pandas as pd
import csv
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
df = pd.read_csv('example.csv')
ax = df.set_index(['question']).plot.bar(stacked=True)
ax.legend(loc='best')
plt.show()
Which gives me:
What I'm trying to do is flip the x and y axes. I want the bars to be horizontal and y axis to be the questions. I tried to transpose my data frame using:
ax = df.set_index(['question']).T.plot.bar(stacked=True)
but that gives me:
which is not what I want. Can anyone help?
to get the bars horizontally (flip the x and y axis), you need to use barh (horizontal bar). More info here. So, the code would be...
import pandas as pd
import csv
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
df = pd.read_csv('example.csv')
ax = df.set_index(['question']).plot.barh(stacked=True)
ax.legend(loc='best')
plt.show()
Output plot

I have the following code where I am trying to plot a bar plot in seaborn. (This is a sample data and both x and y variables are continuous variables).
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import seaborn as sns
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
xvar = [1,2,2,3,4,5,6,8]
yvar = [3,6,-4,4,2,0.5,-1,0.5]
year = [2010,2011,2012,2010,2011,2012,2010,2011]
df = pd.DataFrame()
df['xvar'] = xvar
df['yvar']=yvar
df['year']=year
df
sns.set_style('whitegrid')
fig,ax=plt.subplots()
fig.set_size_inches(10,5)
sns.barplot(data=df,x='xvar',y='yvar',hue='year',lw=0,dodge=False)
It results in the following plot:
Two questions here:
I want to be able to plot the two bars on 2 side by side and not overlapped the way they are now.
For the x-labels, in the original data, I have alot of them. Is there a way I can set xticks to a specific frequency? for instance, in the chart above only I only want to see 1,3 and 6 for x-labels.
Note: If I set dodge = True then the lines become very thin with the original data.
For the first question, get the patches in the bar chart and modify the width of the target patch. It also shifts the position of the x-axis to represent the alignment.
The second question can be done by using slices to set up a list or a manually created list in a specific order.
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import seaborn as sns
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
xvar = [1,2,2,3,4,5,6,8]
yvar = [3,6,-4,4,2,0.5,-1,0.5]
year = [2010,2011,2012,2010,2011,2012,2010,2011]
df = pd.DataFrame({'xvar':xvar,'yvar':yvar,'year':year})
fig,ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(10,5))
sns.set_style('whitegrid')
g = sns.barplot(data=df, x='xvar', y='yvar', hue='year', lw=0, dodge=False)
for idx,patch in enumerate(ax.patches):
current_width = patch.get_width()
current_pos = patch.get_x()
if idx == 8 or idx == 15:
patch.set_width(current_width/2)
if idx == 15:
patch.set_x(current_pos+(current_width/2))
ax.set_xticklabels([1,'',3,'','',6,''])
plt.show()
I have a situation with my data. I like the behaviour of .plot() over a data frame. But sometimes it doesn't work, because the frequency of the time index is not an integer.
But reproducing the plot in matplotlib is OK. Just ugly.
The part that bother me the most is the settings of the x axis. The tick frequency and the limits. Is there any easy way that I can reproduce this behaviour in matplotlib?
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
# Create Data
f = lambda x: np.sin(0.1*x) + 0.1*np.random.randn(1,x.shape[0])
x = np.arange(0,217,0.001)
y = f(x)
# Create DataFrame
data = pd.DataFrame(y.transpose(), columns=['dp'], index=None)
data['t'] = pd.date_range('2021-01-01 14:32:09', periods=len(data['dp']),freq='ms')
data.set_index('t', inplace=True)
# Pandas plot()
data.plot()
# Matplotlib plot (ugly x-axis)
plt.plot(data.index,data['dp'])
EDIT: Basically, what I want to achieve is a similar spacing in the xtics labels, and the tight margin adjust of the values. Legends and axis title, I can do them
Pandas output
Matplotlib output
Thanks
You can use some matplotlib date utilities:
Figure.autofmt_xdate() to unrotate and center the date labels
Axis.set_major_locator() to change the interval to 1 min
Axis.set_major_formatter() to reformat as %H:%M
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.plot(data.index, data['dp'])
import matplotlib.dates as mdates
fig.autofmt_xdate(rotation=0, ha='center')
ax.xaxis.set_major_locator(mdates.MinuteLocator(interval=1))
ax.xaxis.set_major_formatter(mdates.DateFormatter('%H:%M'))
# uncomment to remove the first `xtick`
# ax.set_xticks(ax.get_xticks()[1:])
I have lot of feature in data and i want to make box plot for each feature. So for that
import pandas as pd
import seaborn as sns
plt.figure(figsize=(25,20))
for data in train_df.columns:
plt.subplot(7,4,i+1)
plt.subplots_adjust(hspace = 0.5, wspace = 0.5)
ax =sns.boxplot(train_df[data])
I did this
and the output is
All the plot are on one image i want something like
( not with skew graphs but with box plot )
What changes i need to do ?
In your code, I cannot see where the i is coming from and also it's not clear how ax was assigned.
Maybe try something like this, first an example data frame:
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import seaborn as sns
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
train_df = pd.concat([pd.Series(np.random.normal(i,1,100)) for i in range(12)],axis=1)
Set up fig and a flattened ax for each subplot:
fig,ax = plt.subplots(4,3,figsize=(10,10))
ax = ax.flatten()
The most basic would be to call sns.boxplot assigning ax inside the function:
for i,data in enumerate(train_df.columns):
sns.boxplot(train_df[data],ax=ax[i])
I have an imported excel file in python and want to create a bar chart.
In the bar chart, I want the bars to be separated by profit, 0-10, 10-20, 20-30...
How do I do this?
this is one of the things I have tried:
import NumPy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
%matplotlib inline
df.plot(kind="bar",x="profit", y="people")
df[df.profit<=10]
plt.show()
and:
df[df.profit range (10,20)]
It is a bit difficult to help you better without a sample of your data, but I constructed a dataset randomly that should have the shape of yours, so that this solution can hopefully be useful to you:
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pandas as pd
# For random data
import random
%matplotlib inline
df = pd.DataFrame({'profit':[random.choice([i for i in range(100)]) for x in range(100)], 'people':[random.choice([i for i in range(100)]) for x in range(100)]})
display(df)
out = pd.cut(df['profit'], bins=[x*10 for x in range(10)], include_lowest=True)
ax = out.value_counts(sort=False).plot.bar(rot=0, color="b", figsize=(14,4))
plt.xlabel("Profit")
plt.ylabel("People")
plt.show()
I had a look at another question on here (Pandas bar plot with binned range) and there they explained how this issue can be solved.
Hope it helps :)
I folks,
Consider the following example
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
fig, (ax1,ax2) = plt.subplots(2,1)
dates = pd.date_range("2018-01-01","2019-01-01",freq = "1d")
x = pd.DataFrame(index = dates, data = np.linspace(0,1,len(dates)) )
x.plot(ax=ax1)
y = np.random.random([len(dates),100]) * x.values
ax2.pcolormesh(range(len(x)), np.linspace(-1,1,100), y.T)
plt.show()
At this point, I would like the both axis (ax1,ax2) to share the x-axis, i.e. displaying proper pandas dates on the second axis. sharex=True does not seem to work. How can I achieve that? I tried different possibilities which did not work out.
Edit: Since the pandas date formatting is superior to the native matplotlib formatting, please provide me with a solution where pandas date formatting is used (for instance, zooming with an interactive environment works much better with pandas date formatting). Thanks You!
One way to do it would be to do all the plotting with matplotlib, this way there are no problems with the different time formats being used:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
fig, (ax1,ax2) = plt.subplots(2,1, sharex='col')
dates = pd.date_range("2018-01-01","2019-01-01",freq = "1d")
x = pd.DataFrame(index = dates, data = np.linspace(0,1,len(dates)) )
#x.plot(ax=ax1)
ax1.plot(x.index, x.values)
y = np.random.random([len(dates),100]) * x.values
ax2.pcolormesh(x.index, np.linspace(-1,1,100), y.T)
fig.tight_layout()
plt.show()
This gives the following plot:
What seems to work fine is to first plot the same line into the axes that should host the image, then plot the image, then remove the line again. What this does is that it tells pandas to apply its locators and formatters to that axes; they will stay after removing the line.
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
fig, (ax1,ax2) = plt.subplots(2,1, sharex=True)
dates = pd.date_range("2018-01-01","2019-01-01",freq = "1d")
x = pd.DataFrame(index = dates, data = np.linspace(0,1,len(dates)) )
x.plot(ax=ax1)
y = np.random.random([len(dates),100]) * x.values
x.plot(ax=ax2, legend=False)
ax2.pcolormesh(dates, np.linspace(-1,1,100), y.T)
ax2.lines[0].remove()
plt.show()
Note that there may be caveats of this solution when zooming or panning. Consider it more like a hack and use it as long as it works, but don't blame anyone once it doesn't.
