lib5c.plotters.scatter module

Module for plotting scatterplots of x-y graphs.

lib5c.plotters.scatter.scatter(x, y, logx=True, logy=True, hexbin=True, xlim=None, ylim=None, **kwargs)

Plots a scatterplot of data, either as a scatterplot or a hexbin plot.

Parameters

• y (x,) – The data points.

• logy (logx,) – Log the x- and/or y-axis.

• hexbin (bool) – Pass True to plot a hexbin plot instead of a scatterplot.

• kwargs (kwargs) – Typical plotter kwargs.

Returns

The axis plotted on.

Return type

pyplot axis

Notes

If both xlim and ylim are passed as kwargs and hexbin=True, this function will attempt to set the extent of the hexbin plot using the xlim and ylim.
