Hide Axis Titles in Seaborn

Question

Given the following heatmap, how would I remove the axis titles ('month' and 'year')?

import seaborn as sns  # Load the example flights dataset and conver to long-form flights_long = sns.load_dataset("flights") flights = flights_long.pivot("month", "year", "passengers")  # Draw a heatmap with the numeric values in each cell sns.heatmap(flights, annot=True, fmt="d", linewidths=.5) 

Answer 1

Before calling sns.heatmap, get the axes using plt.subplots, then use set_xlabel and set_ylabel. For example:

import seaborn as sns import matplotlib.pyplot as plt  # Load the example flights dataset and conver to long-form flights_long = sns.load_dataset("flights") flights = flights_long.pivot("month", "year", "passengers")  # ADDED: Extract axes. fig, ax = plt.subplots(1, 1, figsize = (15, 15), dpi=300)  # Draw a heatmap with the numeric values in each cell sns.heatmap(flights, annot=True, fmt="d", linewidths=.5)  # ADDED: Remove labels. ax.set_ylabel('')     ax.set_xlabel('')
