Practice exercises for using Matplotlib and Creating Colormaps

Matplotlib, Colormaps, Advanced Plots in Python

These are Practice exercises for using Matplotlib and Creating Colormaps in Python.

Below are the details for the individual files in this repository.

• matplotlib_tutorial_exercises.ipynb : Consists of all plots created in the matplotlib tutorial from official matplotlib tutorials
• loading_images.ipynb : Load an image into Python as an RGB-array, print the dimensions of the RGB-array, compute the total number of pixels and display image
• creating_and_saving_images.ipynb : Creates a gray scale image (matrix) for the function f:[-pi,pi]x[0,1] defined by f(x,y) = y.cos(x/2). With resolution 1024x512.

Creating and Using Colormaps in Plots:

• your_own_colormap.ipynb : Creating a Color-blind friendly colormap using the CubeHelix Generator
• 2D_contour_plot.ipynb : Creating a contour plot that utilises a user-created colormap for a pendulum function f:[-pi,pi]x[0,1] defined by f(x,y) = y.cos(x/2)
