Notes
The left value may be greater than the right value, in which case the x-axis values will decrease from left to right.
Examples
>>> set_xlim(left, right)
>>> set_xlim((left, right))
>>> left, right = set_xlim(left, right)
One limit may be left unchanged.
>>> set_xlim(right=right_lim)
Limits may be passed in reverse order to flip the direction of
the x-axis. For example, suppose x
represents the number of
years before present. The x-axis limits might be set like the
following so 5000 years ago is on the left of the plot and the
present is on the right.
>>> set_xlim(5000, 0)
