Matplotlib.pyplot.axes()

pyplot.axes is a function of the matplotlib library that adds axes to the current graph and makes it as current axes. Its output depends on the arguments used.

Syntax: matplotlib.pyplot.axes(*args, **kwargs)

Parameters:
*args: It may include either None(nothing) or 4 tuples of float type

none: It gives a new full window axes

4 tuples: It takes 4 tuples as list i.e [left bottom width height] and gives a window of these dimensions as axes.

**kwargs: There are several keyword arguments(kwargs) used as parameters to pyplot.axes(), most common include facecolor, gid, in_layout, label, position, xlim, ylim, etc.

Example 1:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

x = [ 8 , 5 , 11 , 13 , 16 , 23 ]

y = [ 14 , 8 , 21 , 7 , 12 , 15 ]

plt.plot(x, y)

plt.axes()

Output:

Example 2:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

x = [ 8 , 5 , 11 , 13 , 16 , 23 ]

y = [ 14 , 8 , 21 , 7 , 12 , 15 ]

plt.axes([ 0 , 2.0 , 2.0 , 2.0 ], facecolor = 'black' )

Output:
