Matplotlib 3.0 Cookbook

How to do it...

Working on non-interactive mode won't be difficult either:

1. Start the kernel afresh, and import the matplotlib and pyplot libraries:

import matplotlibimport matplotlib.pyplot as plt

2. Set the interactive mode to OFF:

plt.ioff()

3. Check the status of interactive mode:

matplotlib.is_interactive()

4. You should get the output False.
5. Execute the following code; you will not see the plot on your screen:

# Plot a line graphplt.plot([1.5, 3.0])# Plot the title, X and Y axis labelsplt.title("Non Interactive Mode")plt.xlabel("X-axis")plt.ylabel("Y-axis")

6. Execute the following statement, and then you will see the plot on your screen:

# Display the graph on the screen plt.show()
