I am embarrassed to ask this simple question, but has been in kicking my mind for several days whenever I create a plot:
plot (x = 1:10, y = rnorm (10, 5, 2))
grid (10,10, lty = 6, col = "cornsilk2")
I want to position the grids right at where axis are labelled, i.e. at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 in x axis and similarly 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 in y axis.
I want to automate the process as whenever the plot size changes the default label behaviour changes. See the following plot:
figure tells you the call signature:
from matplotlib.pyplot import figure
figure(figsize=(8, 6), dpi=80)
figure(figsize=(1,1)) would create an inch-by-inch image, which would be 80-by-80 pixels unless you also give a different dpi argument.
Change the last line to
q + theme(axis.text.x = element_text(angle = 90, vjust = 0.5, hjust=1))
By default, the axes are aligned at the center of the text, even when rotated. When you rotate +/- 90 degrees, you usually want it to be aligned at the edge instead:
