Installation of Matplotlib
If you have Python and PIP already installed on a system, then installation of Matplotlib is very easy.
Install it using this command:
C:\Users\Your Name>pip install matplotlib
If this command fails, then use a python distribution that already has Matplotlib installed, like Anaconda, Spyder etc.
Import Matplotlib
Once Matplotlib is installed, import it in your applications by adding the import module statement:
import matplotlib
Now Matplotlib is imported and ready to use:
Checking Matplotlib Version
The version string is stored under __version__ attribute.
Example
import matplotlib
print(matplotlib.__version__)
Note: two underscore characters are used in
__version__.
