To put text outside a plot, we can change the text position by changing the value of text_pos_x and text_pos_y
Steps
- Create data points for x and y.
- Initialize the text position of x and y.
- To plot x and y, use plot() method with color='red'.
- Use text() method to add text to figure.
- To display the figure, use show() method.
Example
import numpy as np from matplotlib import pyplot as plt plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = [7.00, 3.50] plt.rcParams["figure.autolayout"] = True x = np.linspace(1, 5, 100) y = np.exp(x) text_pos_x = 0.60 text_pos_y = 0.50 plt.plot(x, y, c='red') plt.text(text_pos_x, text_pos_y, "$\mathit{y}=e^{x}$", fontsize=14, transform=plt.gcf().transFigure, color='green') plt.show()
