Dear ALL, I want to plot lines ("edges") between a sequence of points ("nodes"), using the following code:
from pylab import * import matplotlib.pyplot as plt nodes = load('nodes.dat') edges = load('edges.dat') n = nodes.shape[0] fig = plt.figure() ax = fig.add_subplot(1,1,1) plt.plot(nodes[:,0],nodes[:,1],'ob') for i in range(n): try: t = edges[i,0]-1 u = edges[i,1]-1 x = [nodes[t,0], nodes[u,0]] y = [nodes[t,1], nodes[u,1]] plot(x,y,'-b') except: continue plt.show() And here are the "nodes.dat" -61.05 10.4 -79.4333333333 9.15 -70.6666666667 9.53333333333 -63.1166666667 7.91666666667 -63.1166666667 10.55 -81.1833333333 7.51666666667 -56.4833333333 3.1 -60.5 3.93333333333 -81.0166666667 7.66666666667 -67.4333333333 8.93333333333 -65.9666666667 10.3166666667 -78.9333333333 8.38333333333 -72.8666666667 9.83333333333 -68.4 10.6166666667 -72.9833333333 10.6166666667 ...and "edges.dat" files: 1 5 4 5 5 11 10 11 10 14 3 14 3 13 13 15 4 8 7 8 12 13 2 12 2 9 6 9 The above code works quite well. However, I do *not* want to have the plot done for each edge inside the for loop; instead, I would like to have the x,y points stored for being plotted at once, using a plot command issued outside the loop. It seems that it could be done using MPL line collections, but I could not figure out how to do this. Any hints? Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.
