I want to plot the date column in x-axis and the other two columns in y-axis corresponding to given date of data.
My Code:
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
my_data = pd.read_csv('my_file.csv', index_col = 1)
array_data = np.array(my_data)
y = array_data[:,2]
x = array_data[:,0]
plt.plot(x, y, color='black', linestyle=':', label='something something')
plt.show()
As I am new to programming can somebody help.
The following should work, using pandas
builtin DataFrame.plot()
command.
For your data, you may need to tell read_csv
that your dates have the day first (default is month first):
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
my_data = pd.read_csv('my_file.csv',dayfirst=True,index_col=0)
my_data.plot()
plt.show()
