To change the axes background color, we can use set_facecolor() method.
Steps
Set the figure size and adjust the padding between and around the subplots.
Get the current axes using gca() method.
Set the facecolor of the axes.
Create x and y data points using numpy.
Plot x and y data points using plot() method.
To display the figure, use show() method.
Example
import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = [7.50, 3.50] plt.rcParams["figure.autolayout"] = True ax = plt.gca() ax.set_facecolor("orange") x = np.linspace(-2, 2, 10) y = np.exp(-x) plt.plot(x, y, color='red') plt.show()
