How can I create a chart window in PyCharm?
To create a plot window in PyCharm, you can utilize the matplotlib library.
- First, make sure you have installed the matplotlib library. You can use the following command to install it in the terminal:
- install matplotlib using pip
- Create a new Python file and import the matplotlib library.
- Use the command ‘import matplotlib.pyplot as plt’ to include the ‘plt’ module for generating plots in the Python code.
- Create a new figure window using the plt.figure() function.
- Create a new plot.
- Utilize other matplotlib functions to create charts, such as plotting a line chart.
- Plot a graph using the values in the lists x and y.
- Finally, use the plt.show() function to display the chart window.
- Display the plot.
The complete sample code is shown below:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.figure()
x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
y = [10, 5, 7, 8, 3]
plt.plot(x, y)
plt.show()
After running the code, a new window will pop up displaying a line graph.
