Matplotlib.axes.Axes.get_yscale() in Python

Matplotlib is a library in Python and it is numerical - mathematical extension for NumPy library. The Axes Class contains most of the figure elements: Axis, Tick, Line2D, Text, Polygon, etc., and sets the coordinate system. And the instances of Axes supports callbacks through a callbacks attribute. The Axes.get_yscale() function in axes module of matplotlib library is used to get the y-axis scale as string.

Syntax: Axes.get_yscale(self) Parameters: This method does not accepts any parameters. Return: This function return the y-axis scale as a string.

Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.axes.Axes.get_yscale() function in matplotlib.axes: Example 1: Python3

# Implementation of matplotlib function
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
   
fig, ax = plt.subplots()

ax.plot([1, 2, 3])

w = ax.get_yscale()

ax.set_title("yscale property : "+ str(w),
             fontweight ="bold")
fig.suptitle('matplotlib.axes.Axes.get_yscale() \
function Example\n', fontweight ="bold")
fig.canvas.draw()
plt.show()

Output: Example 2: Python3

# Implementation of matplotlib function
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

fig, ax = plt.subplots()

ax.set_yscale("log")
ax.set_adjustable("datalim")
ax.plot([1, 3, 10], [1, 9, 100], "o-", color ="green")
ax.set_ylim(1e-1, 1e3)
ax.set_aspect(1)
w = ax.get_yscale()
ax.set_title(str(w)+" is the yscale property",
             fontweight ="bold")
fig.suptitle('matplotlib.axes.Axes.get_yscale()\
 function Example\n', fontweight ="bold")

plt.show()

Output:
