Axes.violin(self, vpstats, positions=None, vert=True, widths=0.5, showmeans=False, showextrema=True, showmedians=False) [source]
-
Drawing function for violin plots.
Draw a violin plot for each column of vpstats. Each filled area extends to represent the entire data range, with optional lines at the mean, the median, the minimum, and the maximum.
| Parameters: |
-
vpstats : list of dicts -
A list of dictionaries containing stats for each violin plot. Required keys are: -
coords: A list of scalars containing the coordinates that the violin's kernel density estimate were evaluated at. -
vals: A list of scalars containing the values of the kernel density estimate at each of the coordinates given in coords. -
mean: The mean value for this violin's dataset. -
median: The median value for this violin's dataset. -
min: The minimum value for this violin's dataset. -
max: The maximum value for this violin's dataset. -
positions : array-like, default = [1, 2, ..., n] -
Sets the positions of the violins. The ticks and limits are automatically set to match the positions. -
vert : bool, default = True. -
If true, plots the violins vertically. Otherwise, plots the violins horizontally. -
widths : array-like, default = 0.5 -
Either a scalar or a vector that sets the maximal width of each violin. The default is 0.5, which uses about half of the available horizontal space. -
showmeans : bool, default = False -
If true, will toggle rendering of the means. -
showextrema : bool, default = True -
If true, will toggle rendering of the extrema. -
showmedians : bool, default = False -
If true, will toggle rendering of the medians. |

result : dict -
A dictionary mapping each component of the violinplot to a list of the corresponding collection instances created. The dictionary has the following keys: |
