Using plt.imshow() to display multiple images

Question

How do I use the matlib function plt.imshow(image) to display multiple images?

For example my code is as follows:

for file in images:     process(file)  def process(filename):     image = mpimg.imread(filename)     <something gets done here>     plt.imshow(image) 

My results show that only the last processed image is shown effectively overwriting the other images

Answer 1

You can set up a framework to show multiple images using the following:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import matplotlib.image as mpimg  def process(filename: str=None) -> None:     """     View multiple images stored in files, stacking vertically      Arguments:         filename: str - path to filename containing image     """     image = mpimg.imread(filename)     # <something gets done here>     plt.figure()     plt.imshow(image)  for file in images:     process(file) 

This will stack the images vertically

Answer 2

To display the multiple images use subplot()

plt.figure()  #subplot(r,c) provide the no. of rows and columns f, axarr = plt.subplots(4,1)   # use the created array to output your multiple images. In this case I have stacked 4 images vertically axarr[0].imshow(v_slice[0]) axarr[1].imshow(v_slice[1]) axarr[2].imshow(v_slice[2]) axarr[3].imshow(v_slice[3])
