matplotlib.pyplot.ylim#

matplotlib.pyplot.ylim(*args,**kwargs)[source]#

Get or set the y-limits of the current Axes.

Call signatures:

bottom,top=ylim()# return the current ylimylim((bottom,top))# set the ylim to bottom, topylim(bottom,top)# set the ylim to bottom, top

If you do not specify args, you can alternatively passbottom ortop as kwargs, i.e.:

ylim(top=3)# adjust the top leaving bottom unchangedylim(bottom=1)# adjust the bottom leaving top unchanged

Setting limits turns autoscaling off for the y-axis.

Returns:

bottom, top

A tuple of the new y-axis limits.

Notes

Calling this function with no arguments (e.g.ylim()) is the pyplotequivalent of callingget_ylim on the current Axes.Calling this function with arguments is the pyplot equivalent of callingset_ylim on the current Axes. All arguments are passed though.
