This post will help you with formatting the numbers on axes of your graphs, if you are using Python Matplotlib. When the data you are plotting exceeds a pre-defined value range, Matplotlib will automatically switch to using scientific number formatting.
However, sometimes this can happen a bit erratic or you might want to always use scientific notation (which might be good practice in most cases anyways). This can be done via the following set of commands:
yfm = axScatter.yaxis.get_major_formatter()
yfm.set_powerlimits([ -3, 3])
In order to use these command, matplotlib needs to be included, of course. For plotting examples in Python please refer to the Matplotlib Example Gallery.
