In the Python code in this document, the plot is configured and saved to an external PDF file. This PDF file is then included as picture using \verb|\includegraphics|. \begin{center} \begin{python} # example based on # https://matplotlib.org/stable/gallery/lines_bars_and_markers/simple_plot.html import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np t = np.arange(0.0, 2.0, 0.01) s = 1 + np.sin(2 * np.pi * t) fig, ax = plt.subplots() ax.plot(t, s) ax.set(xlabel='time (s)', ylabel='voltage (mV)', title='About as simple as it gets, folks') ax.grid() fig.savefig('matplotlib-plot.pdf', bbox_inches='tight', pad_inches=0.1) \end{python} \includegraphics[width=0.8\textwidth]{matplotlib-plot.pdf} \end{center} For an alternative approach using the PGF backend, consider the example \verb|matplotlib-pgf.tex|. \end{document}
