For giving different color to the plot, we use the attribute color.

Colors

• For giving different color to the plot, we use the attribute color. For example –

Python code

from matplotlib import pyplot as plt

import numpy as np

y = np.array([5,2,10,8])

plt.plot(y,color = 'b')

plt.show()

Output

• The shortcuts for different colors are enlisted as below ‒

'r' Red

'g' Green

'b' Blue

'c' Cyan

'm' Magenta

'y' Yellow

'k' Black

'w' White

Hex codes

• We can use hex code for the colors. For example –

plt.plot(x, y, color='#ff5733') # Orange‒red color

plt.show()

RGB Tuples

• We can specify colors using RGB tuples (R, G, B) or RGBA (R, G, B, A), where A is the transparency (alpha value). For example ‒

plt.plot(x, y, color=(0.2, 0.6, 0.8)) # RGB values (normalized between 0 and 1)

plt.show()
