Matplotlibis a library in Python and it is numerical - mathematical extension for NumPy library. The
Axes Classcontains most of the figure elements: Axis, Tick, Line2D, Text, Polygon, etc., and sets the coordinate system. And the instances of Axes supports callbacks through a callbacks attribute.
matplotlib.axes.Axes.remove() FunctionThe
Axes.remove() functionin axes module of matplotlib library is used to remove the artist from the figure if possible.
Syntax:Axes.remove(self)
Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.axes.Axes.remove() function in matplotlib.axes:
Example 1: Python3
# Implementation of matplotlib function
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig, axs = plt.subplots()
axs.plot([1, 2, 3])
axs.remove()
fig.suptitle('matplotlib.axes.Axes.remove()\
function Example', fontweight ="bold")
plt.show()
Output: Example 2: Python3
# Implementation of matplotlib function
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig, (axs, axs2) = plt.subplots(2, 1)
gs = axs2.get_gridspec()
axs.remove()
axbig = fig.add_subplot(gs[1:, -1])
axbig.annotate("Removed one Axes",
(0.4, 0.5),
xycoords ='axes fraction',
va ='center')
fig.suptitle('matplotlib.axes.Axes.remove()\
function Example', fontweight ="bold")
plt.show()
