如何在matplotlib中創建等高線圖的圖例？

Question

我似乎無法在任何地方找到答案！我發現了一個討論here，但在嘗試這個，我得到了TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable：

>>> import numpy as np 
>>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt 
>>> x, y = np.meshgrid(np.arange(10),np.arange(10)) 
>>> z = x + y 
>>> cs = plt.contourf(x,y,z,levels=[2,3]) 
>>> cs.collections[0].set_label('test') 
>>> plt.legend()

編輯：我正在尋找這樣的事情：

Answer 1

您可以創建代理藝術家們圖例：

import numpy as np 
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt 
x, y = np.meshgrid(np.arange(10),np.arange(10)) 
z = np.sqrt(x**2 + y**2) 
cs = plt.contourf(x,y,z,levels=[2,3,4,6]) 

proxy = [plt.Rectangle((0,0),1,1,fc = pc.get_facecolor()[0]) 
    for pc in cs.collections] 

plt.legend(proxy, ["range(2-3)", "range(3-4)", "range(4-6)"]) 
plt.show() 

Answer 2

您也可以直接使用輪廓線，而不使用代理藝術家。

import matplotlib 
import numpy as np 
import matplotlib.cm as cm 
import matplotlib.mlab as mlab 
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt 

matplotlib.rcParams['xtick.direction'] = 'out' 
matplotlib.rcParams['ytick.direction'] = 'out' 

delta = 0.025 
x = np.arange(-3.0, 3.0, delta) 
y = np.arange(-2.0, 2.0, delta) 
X, Y = np.meshgrid(x, y) 
Z1 = mlab.bivariate_normal(X, Y, 1.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0) 
Z2 = mlab.bivariate_normal(X, Y, 1.5, 0.5, 1, 1) 
# difference of Gaussians 
Z = 10.0 * (Z2 - Z1) 



# Create a simple contour plot with labels using default colors. The 
# inline argument to clabel will control whether the labels are draw 
# over the line segments of the contour, removing the lines beneath 
# the label 
plt.figure() 
CS = plt.contour(X, Y, Z) 
plt.clabel(CS, inline=1, fontsize=10) 
plt.title('Simplest default with labels') 

labels = ['line1', 'line2','line3','line4', 
      'line5', 'line6'] 
for i in range(len(labels)): 
    CS.collections[i].set_label(labels[i]) 

plt.legend(loc='upper left') 

會產生：

但是，您可能還需要尋找到註解自己的需要。在我看來，它會給你在哪裏，你寫在圖像上的東西，這裏是相同的例子一些註釋更細粒度的控制：

### better with annotation, more flexible 
plt.figure(2) 
CS = plt.contour(X, Y, Z) 
plt.clabel(CS, inline=1, fontsize=10) 
plt.title('Simplest default with labels') 

plt.annotate('some text here',(1.4,1.6)) 
plt.annotate('some text there',(-2,-1.5))
