label plots in python

To label plots in Python using matplotlib, you can use the xlabel, ylabel, and title functions. These functions allow you to define the x and y axis labels as well as the title of the plot.

Here's an example:

main.py
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# create some sample data
x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
y = [2, 4, 6, 8, 10]

# plot the data
plt.plot(x, y)

# add labels and title
plt.xlabel('X-axis label')
plt.ylabel('Y-axis label')
plt.title('Plot title')

# show the plot
plt.show()
262 chars
17 lines

In this example, we first create some sample data (x and y). We then plot this data using plt.plot(x, y).

To add labels and a title, we use the plt.xlabel, plt.ylabel, and plt.title functions. Finally, we call plt.show() to display the plot.

You can customize the appearance of the labels using optional arguments such as fontdict, labelpad, fontsize, etc. For more information, refer to the matplotlib documentation.
