I am plotting graphs in a loop:
cities = grouped_price.index.levels[0] # list of cities
dates = grouped_price.index.levels[1] # list of dates, which
# are 1st day of each month
linestyles = ['-', '-.', '--', '-.-', ':']
for city in cities[0:1]:
for month in dates: # loop over dates, which are grouped by month
legend = legend + [month.strftime("%B")] # month in text
ax = grouped_price.loc[city, month]['Amount'].plot()
plt.show()
How can I set linestyles afterwards? If I write
ax = grouped_price.loc[city, week]['Amount'].plot(style = linestyles)
inside the loops, it just uses the first linestyle for all lines.
Same question with colors and line thickness. I found an iterative solution for setting thicknesses (loop over each line), but is there a simpler way? Thanks.
provided you have the same number of months and linestyles, you can do:
linestyles = ['-', '-.', '--', '-.-', ':']
for city in cities[0:1]:
for month,ls in zip(dates, linestyles): # loop over dates, which are grouped by month and linestyles
legend = legend + [month.strftime("%B")] # month in text
ax = grouped_price.loc[city, month]['Amount'].plot(style = ls)
plt.show()
