Bug: TypeError: ufunc 'sqrt' not supported for the input types, and the inputs could not be safely coerced to any supported types according to the casting rule ''safe'' · Issue #32904 · pandas-dev/pandas (original) (raw)

Code Sample, a copy-pastable example if possible

import numpy as np import pandas as pd import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.random((10,3))*100, columns=['a', 'b', 'c'])

plt.scatter(x='a', y='b', s='c', data=df, alpha=0.3)

df.plot.scatter(x='a', y='b', s='c')

Problem description

Calling plot.scatter on a pandas dataframe with option for size results in a TypeError. The same data can be plotted directly with matplotlib.

Output of pd.show_versions()
