Random points with default styling



In [3]:

    
n = 100
x = random.rand(n)*100
y = random.rand(n)*100
z = random.rand(n)*100

lgn.scatter3(x,y,z)









    Out[3]:

Random small red points



In [4]:

    
n = 100
x = random.rand(n)*100
y = random.rand(n)*100
z = random.rand(n)*100
c = [240,117,145]

lgn.scatter3(x,y,z,size=4,color=c)









    Out[4]:

Random points with all styling options



In [5]:

    
n = 100
x = random.rand(n)*100
y = random.rand(n)*100
z = random.rand(n)*100
c = [asarray(color_palette('Blues', 100)[random.choice(range(100))])*255 for i in range(n)]
s = random.rand(n)*8+1

lgn.scatter3(x, y, z, color=c, size=s)









    Out[5]:

Fun with colors

n = 500
x = random.rand(n)*255
y = random.rand(n)*255
z = random.rand(n)*255
c = column_stack((x,y,z))
