I have a set:
K = {'A', 'E', 'R', 'T'}
and a dictionary called:
Dic = {'A': 25, 'C': 35, 'E': 10, 'R': 7, 'S': 9, 'T': 11}
I know to plot the dictionary Dic by
X = np.arange(len(Dic))
plt.bar(X,Dic.values(),width=0.5)
plt.xticks(X,list(Dic.keys()))
Now I want to change the colours of the bar 'A', 'E' , 'R', 'T' in the graph. Simply like Dic intersection K.
But, I don't know how to compare the set items with the dictionary.
K.intersection(Dic)
That will get you the keys that are in both.
The color changing part of your question is answered here:
Setting Different Bar color in matplotlib Python
Dic = {'A': 25, 'C': 35, 'E': 10, 'R': 7, 'S': 9, 'T': 11}
K = {'A', 'E', 'R', 'T'}
values = [Dic[key] for key in sorted(Dic)]
intersection = K.intersection(Dic)
X = range(len(Dic))
bar_graph = plt.bar(X, values,width=0.5)
print intersection, 'inter'
for i, thing in enumerate(sorted(Dic)):
if thing in intersection:
bar_graph[i].set_color('r')
plt.xticks(X,sorted(Dic.keys()))
plt.show()
You have to do some sorting to make sure the keys are in the same place as plotted. Python dictionaries do not keep the keys in any sorted order.
