To plot a histogram, with collections.Counter, we can use bar() method. In bar() method, we can use collections.counter() to get the frequency for each element. Put the elements and their frequency as height.
Steps
- Set the figure size and adjust the padding between and around the subplots.
- Make a list of a data points.
- Get the dictionary, d, using collections.Counter().
- Make bar plot with d.keys() and d.values().
- To display the figure, use show() method.
Example
import collections from matplotlib import pyplot as plt plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = [7.50, 3.50] plt.rcParams["figure.autolayout"] = True data = [0, 1, 2, 4, 1, 3, 0, 4, 1, 4, 3, 5, 6, 5, 2] d = collections.Counter(data) plt.bar(d.keys(), d.values()) plt.show()
