在进行一些分析时,我偶然发现了一个 ValueError,我可以将其归结为以下简单示例,该示例可以重现我得到的错误:

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import datetime as dt

x = np.array([dt.datetime(2012, 10, 19, 10, 0, 0),
              dt.datetime(2012, 10, 19, 10, 0, 1),
              dt.datetime(2012, 10, 19, 10, 0, 2),
              dt.datetime(2012, 10, 19, 10, 0, 3)])

y = np.array([1, 3, 4, 2])

在尝试绘制这个简单的 x 和 y 数组时,我没有遇到以下问题:

fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.plot(x, y)

或者

fig, (ax1, ax2) = plt.subplots(nrows=2)
ax1.plot(x, y)

但是在添加时sharex=True,我得到一个错误:

fig, (ax1, ax2) = plt.subplots(nrows=2, sharex=True)
ax1.plot(x, y)

错误信息:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\matplotlib\dates.py", line 203, in _from_ordinalf
    dt = datetime.datetime.fromordinal(ix)
ValueError: ordinal must be >= 1

我从 matplotlib ( https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/issues/162 ) 中发现了一个关于使用twinxwith dates 给出相同错误的问题。是同一个bug吗?这似乎是一个长期已知的错误,但尚未解决。

如果您在第二个轴上绘制一些东西,则可以避免该错误:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
import datetime as dt

x = np.array([dt.datetime(2012, 10, 19, 10, 0, 0),
              dt.datetime(2012, 10, 19, 10, 0, 1),
              dt.datetime(2012, 10, 19, 10, 0, 2),
              dt.datetime(2012, 10, 19, 10, 0, 3)])

y = np.array([1, 3, 4, 2])

fig, (ax1, ax2) = plt.subplots(nrows = 2, sharex = True)
ax1.plot(x, y, 'b-')
ax2.plot(x, 1.0/y, 'r-')
plt.show()
