To adjust the width of box in boxplot in Python matplotlib, we can use width in the boxplot() method.
Steps
- Set the figure size and adjust the padding between and around the subplots.
- Make a Pandas dataframe, i.e., two-dimensional, size-mutable, potentially heterogeneous tabular data.
- Make a box and whisker plot, using boxplot() method with width tuple to adjust the box in boxplot.
- To display the figure, use show() method.
Example
import pandas as pd import numpy as np from matplotlib import pyplot as plt plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = [7.50, 3.50] plt.rcParams["figure.autolayout"] = True data = pd.DataFrame({"Box1": np.random.rand(10), "Box2": np.random.rand(10)}) ax = plt.boxplot(data, widths=(0.25, 0.5)) plt.show()
