Python Bokeh – Plotting Quadratic Curves on a Graph

0 0 2 minutes read

Bokeh is a Python interactive data visualization. It renders its plots using HTML and JavaScript. It targets modern web browsers for presentation providing elegant, concise construction of novel graphics with high-performance interactivity.

Bokeh can be used to plot quadratic curves on a graph. Plotting quadratic curves on a graph can be done using the quadratic() method of the plotting module.

plotting.figure.quadratic()

Syntax : quadratic(parameters)

Parameters :

x0 : x-coordinates of the starting points of the quadratic

y0 : y-coordinates of the starting points of the quadratic

x1 : x-coordinates of the ending points of the quadratic

y1 : y-coordinates of the ending points of the quadratic

cx : x-coordinates of the control points of the quadratic

cy : y-coordinates of the control points of the quadratic

Returns : an object of class GlyphRenderer

Example 1 : In this example we will be using the default values for plotting the graph.

# importing the modules 
from bokeh.plotting import figure, output_file, show 
        
# file to save the model 
output_file("gfg.html") 
        
# instantiating the figure object 
graph = figure(title = "Bokeh Quadratic Graph") 
      
# the points to be plotted 
x0 = 1
y0 = 4
x1 = 5
y1 = 4
cx = 2.5
cy = 8
  
# plotting the graph 
graph.quadratic(x0, y0, 
                x1, y1, 
                cx, cy) 
      
# displaying the model 
show(graph) 

Output :

Example 2 : In this example we will be plotting multiple quadratic curves with various other parameters.

# importing the modules  
from bokeh.plotting import figure, output_file, show  
  
# file to save the model  
output_file("gfg.html")  
       
# instantiating the figure object  
graph = figure(title = "Bokeh Quadratic Graph")  
  
# name of the x-axis  
graph.xaxis.axis_label = "x-axis"
       
# name of the y-axis  
graph.yaxis.axis_label = "y-axis"
  
# points to be plotted 
x0 = [1, 0, 0] 
y0 = [4, 8, 5] 
x1 = [5, 4, 4] 
y1 = [4, 8, 7] 
cx = [2.5, 2, 4] 
cy = [8, 3, 4] 
  
# line color value of the quadratic 
line_color = ["yellow", "red", "purple"] 
  
# line width value of the quadratic 
line_width = [10, 5, 8] 
  
# plotting the graph  
graph.quadratic(x0, y0, 
                x1, y1, 
                cx, cy, 
                line_color = line_color, 
                line_width = line_width)  
       
# displaying the model  
show(graph)
