- # Question
- How do I generate a table in its own figure from a pandas dataframe?
- Notice the table appended to the graph above is hardly legible and gets
- cut off. I am not looking to fix legibility as is though, I need a
- separate figure for use in a paper.
- I do not want to have to mess with generating matplotlib axes objects
- like for
- [pandas.plotting.table()](https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/reference/api/pandas.plotting.table.html)
- or in [this example](https://www.statology.org/matplotlib-table/).
- I want to be able to create the table just using and providing the df,
- as opposed to manually formatting the data into a latex table.

How to plot table from pandas dataframe
# MWE ```py import pandas as pd import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.rand(9, 4), columns=['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']) df.plot.bar(table=True) # don't want plot, just want table # df.plot.table() # what I would hope plt.show() ``` # Question How do I generate a table in its own figure from a pandas dataframe? I do not want to have to mess with generating matplotlib axes objects like for [pandas.plotting.table()](https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/reference/api/pandas.plotting.table.html). I want to be able to create the table just using and providing the df, as opposed to manually formatting the data into a latex table.[]()
