Python：顺时针极坐标图

Question

如何制作顺时针图？有人问了类似的问题here：How to make the angles in a matplotlib polar plot go clockwise with 0° at the top?
但我不明白这一点。

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111, polar=True)
ax.grid(True)

theta = np.arange(0,370,10)
theta = [i*np.pi/180.0 for i in theta]  # convert to radians

x = [3.00001,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,2.5,2,2,2,2,2,1.5,1.5,1,1.5,2,2,2.5,2.5,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3]
ax.plot(theta, x)
plt.show()

编辑：

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
from matplotlib.projections import PolarAxes, register_projection
from matplotlib.transforms import Affine2D, Bbox, IdentityTransform

class NorthPolarAxes(PolarAxes):
    '''
    A variant of PolarAxes where theta starts pointing north and goes
    clockwise.
    '''
    name = 'northpolar'

    class NorthPolarTransform(PolarAxes.PolarTransform):
        def transform(self, tr):
            xy   = np.zeros(tr.shape, np.float_)
            t    = tr[:, 0:1]
            r    = tr[:, 1:2]
            x    = xy[:, 0:1]
            y    = xy[:, 1:2]
            x[:] = r * np.sin(t)
            y[:] = r * np.cos(t)
            return xy

        transform_non_affine = transform

        def inverted(self):
            return NorthPolarAxes.InvertedNorthPolarTransform()

    class InvertedNorthPolarTransform(PolarAxes.InvertedPolarTransform):
        def transform(self, xy):
            x = xy[:, 0:1]
            y = xy[:, 1:]
            r = np.sqrt(x*x + y*y)

fig = plt.figure()
register_projection(NorthPolarAxes)
ax=plt.subplot(1, 1, 1, projection='northpolar')    
theta=np.linspace(0,2*np.pi,37)
x = [3.00001,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,2.5,2,2,2,2,
     2,1.5,1.5,1,1.5,2,2,2.5,2.5,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3]
ax.plot(theta, x)
plt.show()

如何正确使用register_projection（NorthPolarAxes）？

Answer 1

添加这些字符串：

ax.set_theta_direction(-1)

ax.set_theta_offset(pi/2.0)

Answer 2

ax.set_theta_direction(-1) ax.set_theta_direction('N')

稍微易于理解。

Answer 3

修改：请注意，Pavel提供了much better solution！

来自matplotlib/projections/polar.py的{​​{1}}和PolarTransform的文档字符串已添加，因为我认为它们有助于解释每个组件的功能。这将指导您更改公式。

要获得顺时针行为，只需更改InvertedPolarTransform - ＆gt; t：

-t

并且在 x[:] = r * np.cos(-t) y[:] = r * np.sin(-t) 中，我们希望在InvertedEastPolarTransform（上半部分）而不是2 * npy.pi - theta时使用y > 0。
