Display Print Statements Interlaced with Matplotlib Plots Inline in IPython

To display print statements interlaced with matplotlib plots inline in iPython, we can take the following steps.

Steps

• Import pyplot from matplotlib.

• Make a list of data for hist plots.

• Initialize a variable "i" to use in print statement.

• Iterate the list of data (Step 2).

• Create a figure and a set of subplots using subplots() method.

• Place print statement.

• Plot the histogram using hist() method.

• Increase "i" by 1.

Example

In [1]: from matplotlib import pyplot as plt

In [2]: myData = [[7, 8, 1], [2, 5, 2]]

In [3]: i = 0

In [4]: for data in myData:
   ...: fig, ax = plt.subplots()
   ...: print("data number i =", i)
   ...: ax.hist(data)
   ...: i = i + 1
   ...:
data number i = 0
data number i = 1

In [5]:

Output

data number i = 0
data number i = 1
