Pandas Plot: scatter plot with index
19,196
Solution 1
You can try and use:
df.reset_index().plot.scatter(x = 'index', y = 'value')
Solution 2
You are mixing two styles, matplotlib
and the pandas
interface to it. Either do it like @anky_91 suggested in their answer, or use matplotlib
directly:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.scatter(df.index, df.value)
plt.xlabel("index")
plt.ylabel("value")
plt.show()

I am trying to create a scatter plot from pandas dataframe, and I dont want to use matplotlib plt for it. Following is the script
df: group people value 1 5 100 2 2 90 1 10 80 2 20 40 1 7 10
I want to create a scatter plot with index on x axis, only using pandas datframe
df.plot.scatter(x = df.index, y = df.value)
it gives me an error
Int64Index([0, 1, 2, 3, 4], dtype='int64') not in index
I dont want to use
plt.scatter(x = df.index, y = df.value)
how to perfom this plot with pandas dataframe
