NameError in Python - suptitle not defined

Question

fig = suptitle('image #{}'.format(num), fontsize=20)
NameError: name 'suptitle' is not defined

I already installed numpy, scipy and matplotlib and imported pylab but for some reason Python isn't recognizing the suptitle function.

Well, did you define or import suptitle? Where? Show that part of the code. — Daniel Roseman, May 21 '18 at 18:14
'import pylab import imageio import suptitle myFilename = r'\Windows\video.mp4' vid = imageio.get_reader(myFilename, 'ffmpeg') nums = [10, 287] for num in nums: image = vid.get_data(num) fig = pylab.figure() fig = suptitle('image #{}'.format(num), fontsize=20) pylab.imshow(image) pylab.show()' — hunter, May 21 '18 at 18:18
Python in general can only use functions that have been imported previously. It seems you want to use matplotlib pyplot's `suptitle` function here, so you may import it as `from matplotlib.pyplot import suptitle`. If you do so, the code you show will not produce any error. — ImportanceOfBeingErnest, May 21 '18 at 18:31

I think you need:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

plt.suptitle('image #{}'.format(num), fontsize = 20)
