Pandas: Bar-Plot with two bars and two y-axis

Question

I have a DataFrame looking like this:

     amount     price
age
A     40929   4066443
B     93904   9611272
C    188349  19360005
D    248438  24335536
E             


        

Answer 1

Here is an other method:

• create all the bars in left axes
• move some bars to the right axes by change it's transform attribute

Here is the code:

import pylab as pl
df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.rand(10, 2), columns=["left", "right"])
df["left"] *= 100

ax = df.plot(kind="bar")
ax2 = ax.twinx()
for r in ax.patches[len(df):]:
    r.set_transform(ax2.transData)
ax2.set_ylim(0, 2);

here is the output:
