Quantile-Quantile Plot using SciPy

Question

How would you create a qq-plot using Python?

Assuming that you have a large set of measurements and are using some plotting function that takes XY-values as input. T

Answer 1

If you need to do a QQ plot of one sample vs. another, statsmodels includes qqplot_2samples(). Like Ricky Robinson in a comment above, this is what I think of as a QQ plot vs a probability plot which is a sample against a theoretical distribution.
