[FIXED] Multiple plots in one figure in Python

Issue

I am new to python and am trying to plot multiple lines in the same figure using matplotlib. The value of my Y-axis is stored in a dictionary and I make corresponding values in X-axis in the following code

My code is like this:

for i in range(len(ID)):
AxisY= PlotPoints[ID[i]]
if len(AxisY)> 5:
    AxisX= [len(AxisY)]
    for i in range(1,len(AxisY)):
        AxisX.append(AxisX[i-1]-1)
    plt.plot(AxisX,AxisY)
    plt.xlabel('Lead Time (in days)')
    plt.ylabel('Proportation of Events Scheduled')
    ax = plt.gca()
    ax.invert_xaxis()
    ax.yaxis.tick_right()
    ax.yaxis.set_label_position("right")
    plt.show()

But I am getting separate figures with a single plot one by one. Can anybody help me figure out what is wrong with my code? Why can't I produce multiple-line plotting? Thanks a lot!

Solution

This is very simple to do:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

plt.plot(<X AXIS VALUES HERE>, <Y AXIS VALUES HERE>, 'line type', label='label here')
plt.plot(<X AXIS VALUES HERE>, <Y AXIS VALUES HERE>, 'line type', label='label here')
plt.legend(loc='best')
plt.show()

You can keep adding plt.plot as many times as you like. As for line type, you need to first specify the color. So for blue, it's b. And for a normal line it's -. An example would be:

plt.plot(total_lengths, sort_times_heap, 'b-', label="Heap")
