未出现在Matplotlib图上的线条

我试图在Matplotlib的同一个地块上绘制三条线。他们是InvoicesThisYear,DisputesThisYear,PercentThisYear(这是争议/发票)

原始输入是两列日期 - 一列用于记录争议的日期,另一列用于记录发票的日期。

我使用日期来计算某一年内每月的争议和发票数量。

然后我尝试绘制它,但它是空的。我开始尝试打印PercentThisYear和InvoicesThisYear。

PercentThisYear = (DisputesFYThisYear/InvoicesFYThisYear).fillna(0.0)

#Percent_ThisYear.plot(kind = 'line')
#InvoicesFYThisYear.plot(kind = 'line')
plt.plot(PercentThisYear)


plt.xlabel('Date')
plt.ylabel('Percent')
plt.title('Customer Disputes')

# Remove the plot frame lines. They are unnecessary chartjunk.    
ax = plt.subplot(111)    
ax.spines["top"].set_visible(False)    
ax.spines["bottom"].set_visible(False)    
ax.spines["right"].set_visible(False)    
ax.spines["left"].set_visible(False) 
ax2 = ax.twinx()
ax2.plot(InvoicesFYThisYear)

# Ensure that the axis ticks only show up on the bottom and left of the plot.    
# Ticks on the right and top of the plot are generally unnecessary chartjunk.    
ax.get_xaxis().tick_bottom()    
#ax.get_yaxis().tick_left()    

# Limit the range of the plot to only where the data is.    
# Avoid unnecessary whitespace.   
datenow = datetime.datetime.now()
dstart = datetime.datetime(2015,4,1)
print datenow 
#plt.ylim(0, .14)    
plt.xlim(dstart, datenow)

firsts=[]
for i in range(dstart.month, datenow.month+1):
    firsts.append(datetime.datetime(2015,i,1))
plt.xticks(firsts)

plt.show()

这是输出...日期全部搞砸了,没有打印出来。但是轴上的比例看起来是正确的。我做错了什么?

如果有帮助,这里是图表的设置

输入看起来像这样:

InvoicesThisYear
Out[82]: 
7    7529
5    5511
6    4934
8    3552
dtype: int64


DisputesThisYear
Out[83]: 
2    211
1    98
7     54
4     43
3     32
6     29
5     21
8     8
dtype: int64

PercentThisYear
Out[84]: 
1    0.000000
2    0.000000
3    0.000000
4    0.000000

Matplotlib无法知道哪些日期与哪些数据点相关联。当您使用一个参数plot调用y时,Matplotlib会自动假定x值为range(len(y))。您需要提供日期作为plot的第一个参数。假设InvoicesThisYear是每月发票数量的计数,从1开始到8结束,你可以做类似

的事情。
import datetime
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pandas as pd
InvoicesFYThisYear = pd.DataFrame([0, 0, 0, 0, 5511, 4934, 7529, 3552])
Disputes = pd.DataFrame([98, 211, 32, 43, 21, 29, 54, 8])
PercentThisYear = (Disputes / InvoicesFYThisYear)
datenow = datetime.date.today()
ax = plt.subplot(111)  
dates = [datetime.date(2015,i,1) for i in xrange(1, 9, 1)]
plt.plot(dates, PercentThisYear)
ax2 = ax.twinx()
ax2.plot(dates, InvoicesFYThisYear)
dstart = datetime.datetime(2015,4,1)
plt.xlim(dstart, datenow)
plt.xticks(dates, dates)
plt.show()

如果您的数据在Pandas系列中,并且索引是表示月份的整数,您所要做的就是将索引更改为datetime对象。 pandas.Series的plot方法将从那里自动处理事物。以下是您可以这样做的方式:

Invoices = pd.Series((211, 98, 54, 43, 32, 29, 21, 8), index = (2, 1, 7, 4, 3, 6, 5, 8))
dates = [datetime.date(2015, month, 1) for month in Invoices.index]
Invoices.index = dates
Invoices.plot()
