This script demonstrates the different available style sheets on a common set of example plots: scatter plot, image, bar graph, patches, line plot and histogram.
Any of these style sheets can be imported (i.e. activated) by its name. For example for the ggplot style:
>>> plt.style.use('ggplot')
The names of the available style sheets can be found in the list matplotlib.style.available (they are also printed in the corner of each plot below).
See more details in Customizing Matplotlib using style sheets.
