Skimage: how to show image

I am novice at skimage and I try to show the image in my ipython notebook:\

from skimage import data, io
coins = data.coins()
io.imshow(coins)

But I see only the following string:

<matplotlib.image.AxesImage at 0x7f8c9c0cc6d8>

Can anyboby explain how to show image right under the code like here: Correct output

Solution

  • Just add matplotlib.pyplot.show() after the io.imshow(coins) line. 

    from skimage import data, io
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt


coins = data.coins()
io.imshow(coins)
plt.show()
