chroptiks
=========

Description
-----------

chroptiks is a Python package that offers advanced plotting utilities,
making it easier to create complex and informative visualizations. It
extends the functionality of libraries like matplotlib and scipy,
providing a user-friendly interface for a variety of plotting needs.

Requirements
------------

Python libraries: matplotlib, numpy, scipy

Installation
------------

To install chroptiks, run:

.. code:: bash

   pip install chroptiks

or if you want to install from source:

.. code:: bash

   git clone https://github.com/cagostino/chroptiks.git
   cd chroptiks
   python setup.py install

Features
--------

—2D Histograms (hist2d): Easily create 2D histograms for data analysis.

—1D Histograms (hist1d): Simplify the process of creating and
customizing 1D histograms.

—Scatter Plots (scatter): Enhanced functionality for scatter plot
creation.

—3D Plots (plot3d): Intuitive tools for 3D data visualization.

—Bar Charts (plotbar): Quick and customizable bar chart creation.

Example usage
-------------

hist2d, hist1d, scatter, plot3d, plotbar are now ready to be used as per
their defined functionalities and plots are generated through each of
their plot methods. For example:

.. code:: python


   import numpy as np
   from chroptiks.plotting_utils import hist2d

   x = np.linspace(-1,1, 100000)+np.random.normal(0,.1, size=100000)
   y = x**(3)+np.random.normal(0, 0.3, size=100000)
   z =  np.random.normal(size=100000)

   hist2d.plot(x,y,nx=200,ny=200)

   hist2d.plot(x,y,nx=40, ny=40, ccode = z, ccodename='Z', xlabel='X', ylabel='Y')

   hist2d.plot(x,y,nx=200,ny=200,bin_y=True, size_y_bin=0.1, xlabel='X', ylabel='Y', percentiles=False)

   from chroptiks.plotting_utils import hist1d

   hist1d.plot(z, range=(-2,2), bins=100, xlabel='Z', ylabel='Counts')

   hist1d.plot(z, range=(-2,2), bins=100, xlabel='Z', ylabel='Counts', normed=True)

   hist1d.plot(z, range=(-4,4), bins=100, xlabel='Z', ylabel='Cumulative Count', cumulative=True)



   from chroptiks.plotting_utils import scat

   #scat
   scat.plot(x,z)

   #scat with color-code
   scat.plot(x,y, ccode=z, color=None, edgecolor=None, vmin=-0.5, vmax=0.5)
   #note if you use ccode to color the points, you must set color to None, and I would advise you to set edgecolor to None as well or else each will have outlines.

   #scat with y-binning
   scat.plot(x, y, bin_y=True, size_y_bin=0.1, percentiles=True, xlabel='X', ylabel='Z', aspect='auto')
