matplotlib.axes.Axes.loglog

Axes.loglog(*args, **kwargs)

Make a plot with log scaling on both the x and y axis.

loglog() supports all the keyword arguments of plot() and matplotlib.axes.Axes.set_xscale() / matplotlib.axes.Axes.set_yscale().

Notable keyword arguments:

basex/basey: scalar > 1
Base of the x/y logarithm
subsx/subsy: [ None | sequence ]
The location of the minor x/y ticks; None defaults to autosubs, which depend on the number of decades in the plot; see matplotlib.axes.Axes.set_xscale() / matplotlib.axes.Axes.set_yscale() for details
nonposx/nonposy: [‘mask’ | ‘clip’ ]
Non-positive values in x or y can be masked as invalid, or clipped to a very small positive number

The remaining valid kwargs are Line2D properties:
