plot a 3d plot using dataframe in matplotlib












0















I have following data and i am having trouble plotting a 3d Plot similar to the one showed in the examples of Matplotlib -> https://matplotlib.org/examples/mplot3d/custom_shaded_3d_surface.html



On the x axis i want to have the Residue column, on the y-axis the first row and the z axis should represent the values.



     residue    0         1         2         3         4         5         6

Is it better not to use a Dataframe in this case?



this is the code im using:



z = df.iloc[1:,1:-1]
ff= [i for i in range(1,500)]
y=df["residue"]
print(len(z))
nrows, ncols = z.shape
x = np.linspace(min(ff),max(ff), ncols)
x, y = np.meshgrid(x, y)
fig, ax = plt.subplots(subplot_kw=dict(projection='3d'))
plt.show()

  • You can sure use a dataframe. One problem is that residue is a column of the frame, so it would be included in the data. however, you would rather make it the dateframe index. Then you will need to create a meshgrid of the index and columns as shown in the many examples on this topic.

  • thank you very much that was exactly what i was looking for, the df.value. I actually added the column name 8residue, 1 ,2,3, etc. manually but apperently it wasnt a smart strategy.

  • thank you very much that was exactly what i was looking for, the df.value. I actually added the column name 8residue, 1 ,2,3, etc. manually but apperently it wasnt a smart strategy.

Then you can create the meshgrid from the columns and the index and plot it according to the linked example.



x,y = np.meshgrid(df.columns.astype(float), df.index)
z = df.values

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from mpl_toolkits.mplot3d import Axes3D
from matplotlib.colors import LightSource

fig, ax = plt.subplots(subplot_kw=dict(projection='3d'))


rgb = LightSource(270, 45).shade(z, cmap=plt.cm.gist_earth, vert_exag=0.1, blend_mode='soft')
surf = ax.plot_surface(x, y, z, facecolors=rgb,
linewidth=0, antialiased=False, shade=False)

plt.show()
