Radial Heatmap from data sheet

I have a file with 3 columns of data: Zenith (Z, from 0 to 90°) and Azimuth (A, from 0 to 360°). And radiance as the color variable.
I need to use python with matplotlib to plot this data into something resembling this:
This is my code so far (it returns an error):
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
# `data` has the following shape:
# [
# [Zenith value going from 0 to 90],
# [Azimuth values (0 to 365) increasing by 1 and looping back after 365],
# [radiance: floats that need to be mapped by the color value]
#]

rad = data[0]
azm = data[1]
# From what I understand, I need to create a meshgrid from the zenith and azimuth values
r, th = np.meshgrid(rad, azm)
z = data[2] # This doesn't work as `pcolormesh` expects this to be a 2d array
plt.subplot(projection="polar")
plt.pcolormesh(th, r, z, shading="auto")
plt.plot(azm, r, color="k", ls="none")
plt.show()
Note: my actual data goes on for 56k lines and looks like this (Ignore the 4th column):
The example data above is my attempt to reduce the resolution of this massive file, so I only used 1/500 of the lines of data. This might be the wrong way to reduce the resolution, please correct me if it is!
Every tutorial I've seen generate the z value from the r array generated by meshgrid. This is leaving me confused about how I would convert my z column into a 2d array that would properly map to the zenith and azimuth values.
They'll use something like this:
z = (r ** 2.0) / 4.0
So, taking the exact shape of r and applying a transformation to create the color.

The solution was in the data file all along. I needed to better understand what np.meshrid actually did. Turns out the data already is a 2d array, it just needed to be reshaped. I also found a flaw in the file, fixing it reduced its lines from 56k to 15k. This was small enough that I did not need to reduce the resolution.
Here's how I reshaped my data, and what the solution looked like:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
with open("data.txt") as f:
lines = np.array(
[
[float(n) for n in line.split("\t")]
for i, line in enumerate(f.read().splitlines())
]
)
data = [np.reshape(a, (89, 180)) for a in lines.T]
rad = np.radians(data[1])
azm = data[0]
z = data[2]
plt.subplot(projection="polar")
plt.pcolormesh(rad, azm, z, cmap="coolwarm", shading="auto")
plt.colorbar()
plt.show()

The simplest way to plot the given data is with a polar scatter plot.
Using blue for low values and red for high values, it could look like:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
data = [[6.000e+00, 1.200e+01, 1.700e+01, 2.300e+01, 2.800e+01, 3.400e+01, 3.900e+01, 4.500e+01, 5.000e+01, 5.600e+01, 6.200e+01, 6.700e+01, 7.300e+01, 7.800e+01, 8.400e+01, 8.900e+01, 3.934e+01, 4.004e+01, 4.054e+01, 4.114e+01, 4.154e+01, 4.204e+01, 4.254e+01, 4.294e+01, 4.334e+01, 4.374e+01, 4.414e+01, 4.454e+01, 4.494e+01, 4.534e+01, 4.564e+01, 4.604e+01, 4.644e+01, 4.684e+01, 4.714e+01, 4.754e+01, 4.794e+01, 4.824e+01, 4.864e+01, 4.904e+01, 4.944e+01, 4.984e+01, 5.014e+01, 5.054e+01, 5.094e+01, 5.134e+01, 5.174e+01, 5.214e+01, 5.264e+01, 5.304e+01, 5.344e+01, 5.394e+01, 5.444e+01, 5.494e+01, 5.544e+01, 5.604e+01, 5.674e+01, 5.764e+01],

Creating such a scatter plot with your real data gives an idea how it looks like. You might want to choose a different colormap, depending on what you want to convey. You also can choose a smaller dot size (for example plt.scatter(rad, azm, c=z, cmap='plasma', s=1, ec='none')) if there would be too many points.
A simple way to create a filled image from non-gridded data uses tricontourf with 256 colors (it looks quite dull with the given data, so I didn't add an example plot):
plt.subplot(projection="polar")
plt.tricontourf(rad, azm, z, levels=256, cmap='coolwarm')

Attaching data from matrix to another

I have a problem with my data.
Some info for you:
I have two cannals of data Bx - red one (Canal 1) and By - blue one, (Canal 3), both of them contain 266336 records. Both measurements are taken in 300 seconds. As a result of my plot I got yaxis which gives me correct unit, which is picoTesla, but xaxis gives me number of samples instead of time. Look:
plt.plot(Bx, label='Canal 1', color='r', linewidth=0.1, linestyle="-")
plt.plot(By, label='Canal 3', color='b', linewidth=0.1, linestyle="-")
About my code, I have managed to create matrix, which define time:
dt = float(300)/266336
Fs = 1/dt
t = [0,300,dt*1e3]
My data matrix looks like this:
a = np.amin(data.data)
Bx = data.data[0,]
By = data.data[1,]
I know that from those 266336 records 887,78409 take place in every second. But how to do this? How to write to python, to let him know, that every second is occupied by 887,78409 samples.
UPDATE!
Using this code:
N = len(Bx)
time = np.linspace(0, 300, N)
plt.plot(time, Bx, ...)
I get this:

Looks like all you need to define your time is: np.linspace(0,300,266336).
This divides the [0, 300] interval into 266336 equal 'steps'.
N = len(Bx)
time = np.linspace(0, 300, N)
plt.plot(time, Bx, ...)
[mcve]:
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
Bx = np.random.rand(266336)
N = len(Bx)
time = np.linspace(0, 300, N) # or 300000
plt.figure(1).clf()
plt.plot(time, Bx)
If this (alone) doesn't work, then I'm clueless why, because it works for me. If it does work but your script doesn't then find what else you are doing in your script that screws up your figure display...

How to add significance levels on bar graph using Python's Matplotlib?

I have written some code to graph some data in Python's Matplotlib.

ax.tick_params(axis='y', labelsize=14)
I have calculated the various two tailed t tests associated with this data and I want to display using standard scientific journal representation - i.e. a line connecting two bars with a star which represents a significance level of (say) >0.05. Can anybody tell me how to do this?

As far as I know there is no standard scientific journal representation for showing significance. The exact way you draw it is a matter of taste. This is probably the reason why matplotlib has no specific function for significance bars (at least to my knowledge). You could just do it manually. E.g:
from matplotlib.markers import TICKDOWN
def significance_bar(start,end,height,displaystring,linewidth = 1.2,markersize = 8,boxpad =0.3,fontsize = 15,color = 'k'):
# draw a line with downticks at the ends
plt.plot([start,end],[height]*2,'-',color = color,lw=linewidth,marker = TICKDOWN,markeredgewidth=linewidth,markersize = markersize)
# draw the text with a bounding box covering up the line
plt.text(0.5*(start+end),height,displaystring,ha = 'center',va='center',bbox=dict(facecolor='1.', edgecolor='none',boxstyle='Square,pad='+str(boxpad)),size = fontsize)
pvals = [0.001,0.1,0.00001]
offset =1
for i,p in enumerate(pvals):
if p>=0.05:
displaystring = r'n.s.'
elif p<0.0001:
displaystring = r'***'
elif p<0.001:
displaystring = r'**'
else:
displaystring = r'*'
height = offset + max(cell_lysate_avg[i],media_avg[i])
bar_centers = index[i] + numpy.array([0.5,1.5])*bar_width
significance_bar(bar_centers[0],bar_centers[1],height,displaystring)
Instead of the stars you could of course also explicitly write p<0.05 or something similar. You can then spend hours fiddling with the parameters until it looks just right.

Python boxplot showing means and confidence intervals

How can I create a boxplot like the one below, in Python? I want to depict means and confidence bounds only (rather than proportions of IQRs, as in matplotlib boxplot).
I don't have any version constraints, and if your answer has some package dependency that's OK too. Thanks!

Use errorbar instead. Here is a minimal example:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
x = [2, 4, 3]
y = [1, 3, 5]
errors = [0.5, 0.25, 0.75]
plt.figure()
plt.errorbar(x, y, xerr=errors, fmt = 'o', color = 'k')
plt.yticks((0, 1, 3, 5, 6), ('', 'x3', 'x2', 'x1',''))
Note that boxplot is not the right approach; the conf_intervals parameter only controls the placement of the notches on the boxes (and we don't want boxes anyway, let alone notched boxes). There is no way to customize the whiskers except as a function of IQR.

Thanks to America, I propose a way to automatize this kind of graph a little bit.
Below an example of code generating 20 arrays from a normal distribution with mean=0.25 and std=0.1.
I used the formula W = t * s / sqrt(n), to calculate the margin of error of the confidence interval, with t the constant from the t distribution (see scipy.stats.t), s the standard deviation and n the number of values in an array.
list_samples=list() # making a list of arrays
for i in range(20):
list.append(np.random.normal(loc=0.25, scale=0.1, size=20))
def W_array(array, conf=0.95): # function that returns W based on the array provided
t = stats.t(df = len(array) - 1).ppf((1 + conf) /2)
W = t * np.std(array, ddof=1) / np.sqrt(len(array))
return W # the error
W_list = list()
mean_list = list()
for i in range(len(list_samples)):
W_list.append(W_array(list_samples[i])) # makes a list of W for each array
mean_list.append(np.mean(list_samples[i])) # same for the means to plot
plt.errorbar(x=mean_list, y=range(len(list_samples)), xerr=W_list, fmt='o', color='k')
plt.axvline(.25, ls='--') # this is only to demonstrate that 95%
# of the 95% CI contain the actual mean
plt.yticks([])
plt.show();

Adding a single label to the legend for a series of different data points plotted inside a designated bin in Python using matplotlib.pyplot.plot()

I have a script for plotting astronomical data of redmapping clusters using a csv file. I could get the data points in it and want to plot them using different colors depending on their redshift values: I am binning the dataset into 3 bins (0.1-0.2, 0.2-0.25, 0.25,0.31) based on the redshift.
The problem arises with my code after I distinguish to what bin the datapoint belongs: I want to have 3 labels in the legend corresponding to red, green and blue data points, but this is not happening and I don't know why. I am using plot() instead of scatter() as I also had to do the best fit from the data in the same figure. So everything needs to be in 1 figure.

ax1.set_position([box.x1,box.y1,box.width, box.height])
py.legend(loc='center left',bbox_to_anchor=(1,0.5))
py.show()
In the 1st 'for' loop, I have indexed every value 'p' in the list 'redshift' so that bins can be created using 'if' statement. But if I add the labels that are hashed out against each py.plot() inside the 'if' statements, each data point 'i' that gets plotted in the figure as an intersection of (x[i],y[i]) takes the label and my entire legend attains in total 87 labels (including the 3 mentioned in the code at other places)!!!!!!
I essentially need 1 label for each bin...
Please tell me what needs to done after the bins are created and py.plot() commands used...Thanks in advance :-)
Sorry I cannot post my image here due to low reputation!

Working with numerical data like this, you should really consider using a numerical library, like numpy.
The problem in your code arises from processing each record (a coordinate (x,y) and the corresponding value redshift) one at a time. You are calling plot for each point, thereby creating legends for each of those 84 datapoints. You should consider your "bins" as groups of data that belong to the same dataset and process them as such. You could use "logical masks" to distinguish between your "bins", as shown below.
It's also not clear why you call exit after each plotting action.
