Why all words in my legend's title are all joint?

Question

Is there other way to make legend's title in bold? Why all the words are joint?

Here my code:

    myLegend=plt.legend(bbox_to_anchor=(0., 1.2, 1., .102), prop ={'size':10}, loc=10, ncol=4,
                title=r'$\bf{TOTAL ACCURACY AND PER STAGE - RANDOM FOREST}$')

    myLegend.get_title().set_fontsize('24')

Thanks, I will check the link. Anyway... do you know why all the words are all joint in the legend's title? — Aizzaac, Sep 14 '16 at 19:14
I don't know the right words, but it seems you are using latex-rendering and in some latex-subsets, whitespaces are omitted. Usually (but also try my later links) you would use ```TOTAL~ACCURARY``` where the tilde marks a whitespace. If i'm right, you could also check out [this](http://www.emerson.emory.edu/services/latex/latex_119.html) and [this](http://texblog.org/2014/04/09/whitespace-in-math-mode/). — sascha, Sep 14 '16 at 19:42
Thanks Sascha. I tried it, but it did not work. I used instead: \enspace — Aizzaac, Sep 14 '16 at 19:57
you passed the title in a mathtext, which has no spaces. Remove the `$`'s — Paul H, Sep 14 '16 at 20:42
