I'm getting a number of errors. Does anyone see something in the code that is sticking out like thorn?

from pylab import plot, show, title, xlabel, ylabel, legend
import matplotlib.dates as dates
title('AF16 compared to AF17')
xlabel('Month')
ylabel('Donation Amount')
legend([af16y, af17y])
af16x = dates.datestr2num[1/1/15,3/5/16]
af17x = dates.datestr2num[4/5/16, 2/2/17]
af16y = [3000,5000]
af17y = [350,7000]
plot(af16x,af16y,af17x,af17y)

mostly I know the legend and the dates are causing errors. This is a schmorgasborg of code so I knew I was running into errors. Any help is appreciated.

  • datestr2num is a function, which takes a list of string representations of dates. Take a look at stackoverflow.com/questions/23644020/matplotlib-string-to-dates Commented Mar 6, 2017 at 23:52
  • I get an error pertaining to the legend: NameError: name 'af16y' is not defined I just comment out the legend and then I get this error: af16x = dates.datestr2num[1/1/15,3/15/16] TypeError: 'function' object is not subscriptable Commented Mar 7, 2017 at 6:20
