Notes
Calling this function with no arguments (e.g.
yticks()
) is the pyplot equivalent of callingget_yticks
andget_yticklabels
on the current axes. Calling this function with arguments is the pyplot equivalent of callingset_yticks
andset_yticklabels
on the current axes.Examples
>>> locs, labels = yticks() # Get the current locations and labels. >>> yticks(np.arange(0, 1, step=0.2)) # Set label locations. >>> yticks(np.arange(3), ['Tom', 'Dick', 'Sue']) # Set text labels. >>> yticks([0, 1, 2], ['January', 'February', 'March'], ... rotation=45) # Set text labels and properties. >>> yticks([]) # Disable yticks.
