Matplotlib Plt.xlim([x_min,x_max]), List Object Not Callable

I want to plot a scatterplot, but set the x-label limits. axScatter = plt.subplot(111) axScatter.scatter(x=mean_var_r['Variance'],y=mean_var_r['Mean']) xlim = [-0.003, 0.003] plt.x

Solution 1:

With some help from seaborn, set_xlim and set_ylim properties work quite intuitively:

import seaborn as sns

ax = sns.lineplot(x=range(0,100),
                  y=range(0,100))

ax.set_xlim([50, 100])
ax.set_ylim([50, 100])

(*Using matplotlib==3.2.2, and seaborn==0.10.1)

Solution 2:

It appears that the API has changed. See this page. The function no longer accepts a list; the function accepts a tuple.

Try this:

axScatter = plt.subplot(111)
axScatter.scatter(x=mean_var_r["Variance"],y=mean_var_r["Mean"])
xlim = (-0.003, 0.003)
plt.xlim(xlim)
plt.show()
