setting y-axis limit in matplotlib

Question

I need help with setting the limits of y-axis on matplotlib. Here is the code that I tried, unsuccessfully.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

plt.figure(1, fi

You can instantiate an object from matplotlib.pyplot.axes and call the set_ylim() on it. It would be something like this:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
axes = plt.axes()
axes.set_ylim([0, 1])
