parametric
(*args, values=None, cmap=None, norm=None, interp=0, **kwargs)[source]¶ Draw a line whose color changes as a function of the parametric coordinate
values
using the input colormapcmap
. Invoked when you pass thecmap
keyword argument toplot
.- Parameters
*args ((y,) or (x,y)) – The coordinates. If
x
is not provided, it is inferred fromy
.cmap (colormap spec, optional) – The colormap specifier, passed to
Colormap
.values (list of float) – The parametric values used to map points on the line to colors in the colormap.
norm (normalizer spec, optional) – The normalizer, passed to
Norm
.interp (int, optional) – If greater than
0
, we interpolate to additional points between thevalues
coordinates. The number corresponds to the number of additional color levels between the line joints and the halfway points between line joints.
- Returns
LineCollection
– The parametric line. See this matplotlib example.
