Matplotlib is a library in Python and it is numerical - mathematical extension for NumPy library. The Axes Class contains most of the figure elements: Axis, Tick, Line2D, Text, Polygon, etc., and sets the coordinate system. And the instances of Axes supports callbacks through a callbacks attribute.

matplotlib.axes.Axes.set() Function

The Axes.set() function in axes module of matplotlib library is a property batch setter. Pass kwargs to set properties.
Syntax: Axes.set(self, **kwargs) Parameters: This method does not accepts any parameters other than **kwargs.
Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.axes.Axes.set() function in matplotlib.axes: Example 1:Python3
# Implementation of matplotlib function
import matplotlib
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
 
t = np.arange(0.0, 2, 0.001)
s = 1 + np.sin(8 * np.pi * t)*0.4
 
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.plot(t, s)
 
ax.set(xlabel ='X-Axis', ylabel ='Y-Axis',
       xlim =(0, 1.5), ylim =(0.5, 1.5),
       title ='matplotlib.axes.Axes.set()\
 function Example')
ax.grid()
 
plt.show()
Output: Example 2:Python3
# Implementation of matplotlib function
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
np.random.seed(19680801)

fig, ax = plt.subplots()

x, y, s, c = np.random.rand(4, 200)
s *= 200

ax.scatter(x, y, s, c)

ax.set(xlabel ='X-Axis', ylabel ='Y-Axis',
       xlim =(0, 0.5), ylim =(0, 0.5),
       title ='matplotlib.axes.Axes.set()\
 function Example')
ax.grid()

plt.show()
