Questions tagged [xticks]

For questions related to xticks in matplotlib, seaborn, or pandas plots.

"xticks" refers mainly to a submodule of the python plotting library matplotlib which handels the ticks of the x axis. But this tag is in general not limited to python or matplotlib but can be used whenever one refers to position and appearance of ticks and marks at the axes of a graph.
