Python数据可视化5-legend图例说明

对于每一个函数有自己的说明

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
# 设置数据
x = np.linspace(-3, 3, 50)
y1 = 2*x + 1
y2 = x**2

plt.figure()
# set x limits
plt.xlim((-1, 2))
plt.ylim((-2, 3))

# set new sticks
new_sticks = np.linspace(-1, 2, 5)
plt.xticks(new_sticks)
# set tick labels
plt.yticks([-2, -1.8, -1, 1.22, 3],
           [r'$really\ bad$', r'$bad$', r'$normal$', r'$good$', r'$really\ good$'])
# 绘图
l1, = plt.plot(x, y1, label='linear line')
l2, = plt.plot(x, y2, color='red', linewidth=1.0, linestyle='--', label='square line')
# 显示各个函数的图例
plt.legend(loc='best')

# 允许修改函数自己的lable
# plt.legend(handles=[l1, l2], labels=['up', 'down'],  loc='best')
# the "," is very important in here l1, = plt... and l2, = plt... for this step
"""legend( handles=(line1, line2, line3),
           labels=('label1', 'label2', 'label3'),
           'upper right')
    The *loc* location codes are::

          'best' : 0,          (currently not supported for figure legends)
          'upper right'  : 1,
          'upper left'   : 2,
          'lower left'   : 3,
          'lower right'  : 4,
          'right'        : 5,
          'center left'  : 6,
          'center right' : 7,
          'lower center' : 8,
          'upper center' : 9,
          'center'       : 10,"""

plt.show()
