modify the x-axis labels in histogram plot using matplotlib

Question

I use the following code to plot the histogram. If I want to make the label along the x-axis more fine grained, how to change the code. For instance, the current plot segment the x-axis with 0.2 as interval, can I have 0.05 as interval?

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.hist(image_pixel_array,bins=25,color='g')
plt.grid(True)
plt.show()

Answer 1

Here,

plt.xlim([-3, 3])
plt.ylim([-3, 3])
plt.yticks(np.arange(-3, 3, 0.5))
plt.xticks(np.arange(-3, 3, 0.5))

plt.show()

you'll get the ticks 0.5 distance apart in the range of -3 to 3. Hope this helps.
