pyplot scatter plot marker size

Question

In the pyplot document for scatter plot:

matplotlib.pyplot.scatter(x, y, s=20, c=\'b\', marker=\'o\', cmap=None, norm=None,
                          vmin=No         


        

Answer 1

You can use markersize to specify the size of the circle in plot method

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

x1 = np.random.randn(20)
x2 = np.random.randn(20)
plt.figure(1)
# you can specify the marker size two ways directly:
plt.plot(x1, 'bo', markersize=20)  # blue circle with size 10 
plt.plot(x2, 'ro', ms=10,)  # ms is just an alias for markersize
plt.show()

From here
