Display an image with Python

Question

I tried to use IPython.display with the following code:

from IPython.display import display, Image
display(Image(filename=\'MyImage.png\'))

Answer 1

Your code:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.image as mpimg

What it should be:

plt.imshow(mpimg.imread('MyImage.png'))
File_name = mpimg.imread('FilePath')
plt.imshow(FileName)
plt.show()

you're missing a plt.show() unless you're in Jupyter notebook, other IDE's do not automatically display plots so you have to use plt.show() each time you want to display a plot or made a change to an existing plot in follow up code.
