Matplotlib Plot Hex Color
To color the plot with a Hex Color string in matplotlib, call plot()
function on matplotlib.pyplot
object and pass the color string for fmt
parameter.
The definition of plot() function with x
, y
and fmt
parameters is
plot([x], y, [fmt])
Sample plot() function calls with fmt
parameter containing Hex String for color.
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt plt.plot(x, y, '#FF0055') plt.plot(x, y, '#FFFF55') plt.plot(x, y, '#110055')
Example
In this example, we will plot Y vs X with the plot color of ‘#FF0055’.
example.py
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt # x axis and y axis data x = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11] y = [5, 7, 8, 1, 4, 9, 6, 3, 5, 2, 1, 8] #plot y vs x, and set the color for plot plt.plot(x, y, '#FF0055') #show plot to user plt.show()
Output
Conclusion
Concluding this Matplotlib Tutorial, we learned how to color plot with Hex color string.
