How to save the Pandas dataframe/series data as a figure?

Question

It sounds somewhat weird， but I need to save the Pandas console output string to png pics. For example:

>>> df
                   sales  net_pft             


        

Answer 1

You have to use the figure returned by the DataFrame.plot() command:

ax = df.plot()
fig = ax.get_figure()
fig.savefig('asdf.png')
