在误差棒中包括上限和下限#

在 matplotlib 中，误差棒可以有“限制”。将限制应用于误差棒本质上使误差单向。因此，可以通过 uplims、 lolims、 xuplims 和 xlolims 参数分别在 y 和 x 方向上应用上下限。这些参数可以是标量或布尔数组。

例如，如果 xlolims 为 True，则 x 误差棒仅从数据向增加的值延伸。如果 uplims 是一个数组，除了第 4 个和第 7 个值外，其余都填充了 False，则所有 y 误差棒都是双向的，但第 4 个和第 7 个误差棒除外，它们将从数据向减小的 y 值延伸。

# example data
x = np.array([0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0])
y = np.exp(-x)
xerr = 0.1
yerr = 0.2

# lower & upper limits of the error
lolims = np.array([0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0], dtype=bool)
uplims = np.array([0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1], dtype=bool)

fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(7, 4))

# standard error bars
ax.errorbar(x, y, xerr=xerr, yerr=yerr, linestyle=ls)

# including upper limits
ax.errorbar(x, y + 0.5, xerr=xerr, yerr=yerr, uplims=uplims,
            linestyle=ls)

# including lower limits
ax.errorbar(x, y + 1.0, xerr=xerr, yerr=yerr, lolims=lolims,
            linestyle=ls)

# including upper and lower limits

# mock up some limits by modifying previous data

uplims = np.zeros_like(x)
lolims[[6]] = True  # only limited at this index

# do the plotting

            xlolims=xlolims, xuplims=xuplims,
            uplims=uplims, lolims=lolims,

            linestyle='none')

# tidy up the figure

ax.set_title('Errorbar upper and lower limits')
