Documentation

tbarplot - Bar plots with improved error bars

What is this?

tbarplot replaces the error bars in matplotlib's bar plot function with literally the letter T, properly scaled according to the specified error.

Y tho

Using the letter "T" as the error bar symbol is a standard practice accepted by a number of scientific journals (that number being one).

Installation

pip install tbarplot

Usage

tbarplot.bar() has the same signature as plt.bar().

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import tbarplot

# Fake data, real feelings
langs = ['C', 'C++', 'R', 'Python']
values = [20, 15, -10, 35]
yerr = [2, 5, 3, 7]

# Bar plot
fig = plt.figure()
tbarplot.bar(langs, values, yerr=yerr)

# Configure plot as with any other matplotlib function
plt.xlabel("Programming language")
plt.ylabel("How much I like this language")
plt.title("My programming language preferences")
plt.show()
