Saving the plot using the dataframe plot function [duplicate]

Question

I'm using the data frame plot function to create the following plot: Using the following code:

data.groupby(['age']).agg(np.size)['listener_id'].plot(kind='bar')

How can I save this plot?

The pandas plotting function wraps matplotlib. You can save these using something like

plt.savefig('<filename>.png')

I tried this actually plt.savefig("~/Documents/folder/age.pdf") but it says file does not exist

Try creating a figure and axis using fig, ax = plt.subplots() and then pass ax = ax into the pandas plotting command.

Try this:

bplot = data.groupby(['age']).agg(np.size)['listener_id'].plot(kind='bar')
fig = bplot.get_figure()
fig.savefig("test.png")
