python - matplotlib: generate a new graph in a new window for subsequent program runs

Question

I have a Python program that generates graphs using matplotlib. I am trying to get the program to generate a bunch of plots in one program run (the user is asked if they want to generate another graph) all in separate windows. Any way I can do this?

Answer 1

To generate a new figure, you can add plt.figure() before any plotting that your program does.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

def make_plot(slope):
    x = np.arange(1,10)
    y = slope*x+3
    plt.figure()
    plt.plot(x,y)

make_plot(2)
make_plot(3)
