Plotting multiple scatter plots pandas

Question

I think there are many questions on plotting multiple graphs but not specifically for this case as shown below.

The pandas documentation says to \'repeat plot method

Answer 1

You could plot the multiple columns automatically within a for loop.

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.randn(100, 5), columns=['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e',])

f,ax = plt.subplots(1)

for x,y,c in zip(['a','c','e'],['b','d','d'],['r','g','b']):
    df.plot(kind='scatter', 
            x=x, 
            y=y, 
            color=c, 
            ax=ax, 
            label='{} vs {}'.format(x,y)
            )

Then, of course, the columns of the dataframe and the colors can also be generated from code instead of hard coded.
