Matplotlib - Export and Publication Quality

Which of the following matplotlib code snippets correctly sets a plot title to display the equation F = ma using LaTeX rendering?

Aimport matplotlib.pyplot as plt plt.title('F = ma') plt.show()

Bimport matplotlib.pyplot as plt plt.rcParams['text.usetex'] = True plt.title(r'$F = ma$') plt.show()

Cimport matplotlib.pyplot as plt plt.rcParams['text.usetex'] = False plt.title(r'$F = ma$') plt.show()

Dimport matplotlib.pyplot as plt plt.rcParams['text.usetex'] = True plt.title('F = ma') plt.show()

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Enable LaTeX rendering
Set plt.rcParams['text.usetex'] = True to allow LaTeX syntax in text elements.
Step 2: Use raw string with LaTeX syntax
Pass the title string as a raw string with LaTeX math delimiters, e.g., r'$F = ma$'.
Final Answer:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt plt.rcParams['text.usetex'] = True plt.title(r'$F = ma$') plt.show() correctly enables LaTeX and uses proper syntax for the title.
Quick Check:
Check for usetex=True and raw string with math delimiters [OK]

Quick Trick: Enable usetex and use raw string with $...$ for LaTeX titles [OK]
