Jupyter (IPython) notebook not plotting
I installed anaconda to use pandas and scipy. I reading and watching pandas tutorials and they all say to open the ipython notebook using
ipython notebook --pylab==inline
but when I do that I get a message saying
"Support for specifying --pylab on the command line has been removed. Please use '%pylab = inline' or '%matplotlib =inline' in the notebook itself"
But that does not work. Then when I try "plot(arange(10))" I get a message saying "name 'plot' is not defined." I trying plotting data from a .csv file and got
"matplotlib.axes._subplots.AxesSubplot at 0xebf8b70".
What should I do?
I believe the pylab magic was removed when they transitioned from IPython to a more general Jupyter notebook.
Try:
%matplotlib inline
Also when you get a message like:
"matplotlib.axes._subplots.AxesSubplot at 0xebf8b70".
That's just IPython displaying the object. You need to specify IPython display it. Hence the matplotlib inline magic.
