Common Mistakes

Using 1 instead of 2 for the number of subfigures.

Confusing rows and columns in subfigures.

The code creates one row of subfigures with 2 columns, so the correct argument is 2.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 2 or 3 which are out of range for two subfigures.

Using 0 which is the first subfigure.

The second subfigure is at index 1 because indexing starts at 0.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to create a 1x3 grid of subplots inside the second subfigure.

Matplotlib

axs2 = subfigs[1].subplots([1], [2])
plt.show()

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Common Mistakes

Swapping rows and columns.

Using 2 instead of 1 for rows.

To create a 1 row and 3 columns grid, use 1 and 3 respectively.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to plot a line on the first subplot of the first subfigure.

Matplotlib

axs.flat[[1]].plot([2], [3])
plt.show()

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using index 1 instead of 0 for the first subplot.

Swapping x and y data lists.

The first subplot is index 0; x values are [1, 2, 3, 4]; y values are [10, 20, 25, 30].
