Annotate Horizontal Bar Chart Matplotlib. The intended uses of matplotlib and Bokeh are quite different. The bars can be plotted vertically or horizontally.
Using matplotlib and its bar chart function we can create histogram charts. The intended uses of matplotlib and Bokeh are quite different. Based on a feature mentioned in this answer to another question I have found a very generally applicable solution for placing labels on a bar chart.
The bars can be plotted vertically or horizontally.
Import matplotlibpyplot as plt N 5 menMeans 20 35 30 35 27 ind nparangeN Creating a figure with some fig size fig ax pltsubplotsfigsize 105 axbarindmenMeanswidth04 Now the trick is here. The direction of the color bar horizontal or vertical. Optionally the text can be displayed in another position xytextAn arrow pointing from the text to the annotated point xy can then be added by defining arrowprops. The bar plots can be plotted horizontally or vertically.
