Hi,
thanks for reply.
My problem is that I need to scatter data of different periods but in the
same x.
For example, the quantity x sold in March is 1 at price y of 2, the quantity
sold in April is 2 at price y of 3. I want the 2 points to have different
colors in the same graph!
Now I'm doing:
for i in list:
x.append(i[0])
y.append(i[1])
axScatter.scatter(x, y, c='r', marker='s')
This makes al the points red! I want to be able to put points of different
colors for different periods of time. Basically, I want to know how to
define a function in order to change the color of the points for specific
definitions.
