I have the following code...
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
np.random.seed(seed=2021)
x = np.arange(0, 200)
y = np.random.randint(1, 10, 200)
plt.plot(x, y)
plt.show()
...that generates this chart:
What I need is when the code start, the chart zooms by default to the last 25 records.
I do not want to limit the data. I want the 200 records to continue graphing, so that later I can move through the chart (with the arrow in the lower left corner) in case I want to see the historical data.
Is there a way to set a default zoom when the chart start?
CodePudding user response:
You can just add plt.xlim(175, 200)
which sets the limit of the x axis.
CodePudding user response:
If you do not want to hard code the left limit in xlim
, you can read the shape of your x array and use this to plot only the last 25 samples:
plt.xlim(left=x.shape[0]-25)
