show_and_save_plot

hybrid_learning.experimentation.exp_eval_common.show_and_save_plot(fig=None, save_as=None, show_fig=True, default_fn=None, allowed_endings=('.png', '.pdf', '.svg'))[source]

Save a plot with proper default timestamped filename.

Parameters

  • fig (Optional[Figure]) – the figure to plot, defaults to plt.gcf()

  • save_as (Optional[str]) – the file path or directory path under which to save the figure; if save_as is a directory, the default_fn is used to create the file name; may contain the formatting key {default} which is then replaced by default_fn (with file ending!), and {ts} which is replaced by a timestamp

  • show_fig (bool) – whether to call show() on the figure

  • default_fn (Optional[str]) – the default file name (with .pdf as default file ending)

  • allowed_endings (Sequence[str]) – if save_as does not end in one of allowed_endings, it is assumed to be the file name and ".pdf" is appended
