Matplotlib is a library in Python and it is numerical - mathematical extension for NumPy library.
Pyplot is a state-based interface to a
Matplotlib module which provides a MATLAB-like interface.
matplotlib.pyplot.hist2d() Function
The
hist2d() function in pyplot module of matplotlib library is used to make a 2D histogram plot.
Syntax:matplotlib.pyplot.hist2d(x, y, bins=10, range=None, density=False, weights=None, cmin=None, cmax=None, \*, data=None, \*\*kwargs)
Parameters: This method accept the following parameters that are described below:
- x, y : These parameter are the sequence of data.
- bins : This parameter is an optional parameter and it contains the integer or sequence or string.
- range : This parameter is an optional parameter and it the lower and upper range of the bins.
- density : This parameter is an optional parameter and it contains the boolean values.
- weights : This parameter is an optional parameter and it is an array of weights, of the same shape as x.
- cmin : This parameter has all bins that has count less than cmin will not be displayed.
- cmax : This parameter has all bins that has count more than cmax will not be displayed.
Returns: This returns the following:
- h :This returns the bi-dimensional histogram of samples x and y.
- xedges :This returns the bin edges along the x axis.
- yedges :This returns the bin edges along the y axis.
- image :This returns the QuadMesh.
