In this video I show you how to add error bars to a chart using matplotlib in python and the various options that are available. How to add variable error bars. How to make symmetrical and asymmetrical error bars. How to format error bars.

Matplotlib error bars webpage: matplotlib.org/api/_as_gen/matplotlib.pyplot.er…

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

x = [1,2,3,4,5]
y = [1,2,1,2,1]
yerrormin = [0.1,0.5,0.9,0.1,0.9]
yerrormax = [0.2,0.4,0.6,0.4,0.2]
xerror = 0.5

yerror = [yerrormin, yerrormax]

plt.plot(x,y,'o')

plt.errorbar(x,y,yerr=yerror, xerr=xerror, fmt='o', ecolor='black', elinewidth=2, capsize=5,
capthick=2, barsabove=False, errorevery=1, lolims=True, uplims=True, xlolims=True,
xuplims=True, alpha=1, ms=10)

matplotlib.pyplot.errorbar(x, y, yerr=None, xerr=None, fmt='', ecolor=None, elinewidth=None,
capsize=None, barsabove=False, lolims=False, uplims=False, xlolims=False,
xuplims=False, errorevery=1, capthick=None, *, data=None, **kwargs)

plt.show()
