I've used matplotlib for plotting some experimental results (discussed it in here: Looping over files and plotting. However, saving the picture by clicking right to the image gives very bad quality / low resolution images. from glob import glob import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import matplotlib as mpl # loop over all files in the current directory ending with .txt for fname in glob("./*.txt"): # read file, skip header (1 line) and unpack into 3 variables WL, ABS, T = np.genfromtxt(fname, skip_header=1, unpack=True) # first plot plt.plot(WL, T, label='BN', color='blue') plt.xlabel('Wavelength (nm)') plt.xlim(200,1000) plt.ylim(0,100) plt.ylabel('Transmittance, %') mpl.rcParams.update({'font.size': 14}) #plt.legend(loc='lower center') plt.title('') plt.show() plt.clf() # second plot plt.plot(WL, ABS, label='BN', color='red') plt.xlabel('Wavelength (nm)') plt.xlim(200,1000) plt.ylabel('Absorbance, A') mpl.rcParams.update({'font.size': 14}) #plt.legend() plt.title('') plt.show() plt.clf() Example graph of what I'm looking for: example graph Continue reading...
