For my pyplot axes, I want to use the following ticks:
ticks = [-5.0, -4, -3, -2, -1, -0.128]
(These strange values are calculated and will change dynamically.)
But there are 2 important details I want to realise: The first and the last value should be a float number to see the exact values at the beginning and the end. The values between shall only be integers to keep it readable.
To set the ticks, I did
axes = plt.subplot()
axes.set_xticks(ticks)
And I get what I want, but it looks bad because my integer values are still printed as float values with 3 decimals.
I want to get ticks -5.000, -4, -3, -2, -1, -0.128
and not -5.000, -4.000, ...
.
Any idea what I can do to solve this? Thank you! :)
Thanks to ImportanceOfBeingErnest, I was able to solve it quickly. Thank you very much!
For other people with the same problem:
ticks = [-5.0, -4, -3, -2, -1, -0.128]
tickLabels = map(str, ticks)
axes = plt.subplot()
axes.set_xticks(ticks)
axes.set_xticklabels(tickLabels)
