%matplotlib inline syntax error

Hello, Is there an alternate for the %matplotlib inline while plotting graphs?

This is what I get when i use this code:

>>> %matplotlib.inline

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

P.S. I am using Python IDLE

Hi Kanika,

%matplotlib.inline is a command for Jupyter Notebook. For IDLE simply write your plotting code, without the inline command, and it should be able to produce the plot.

Thanks,

Ashish

Yeah I did it via IPNB, as for the plot witch one did you end up choosing a basic line?
