Synopsis
New plots will display a logarithmically-scaled Y axis.
Syntax
set_ylog(plottype='all') plottype - optional
Description
This setting only affects plots created after the call to `set_ylog` .
Examples
Example 1
Use a logarithmic scale for the Y axis of 'data' plots:
>>> set_ylog('data')
>>> plot('data', 'arf')Example 2
All plots use a logarithmic scale for the Y axis.
>>> set_ylog() >>> plot_fit()
PARAMETERS
The parameter for this function is:
| Parameter | Definition |
|---|---|
| plottype | The type of plot that is to use a log-scaled X axis. The options are the same as accepted by `plot` , together with the 'all' option (which is the default setting). |
