报错解决：plt.colormaps[‘RdYlGn‘](np.linspace(0.15, 0.85, data.shape[1]))

今天在matplotlib官网下载了一段画图代码，发现跑不通。具体报错如下图所示：

根据错误提示，发现是下面这行代码的使用出现了问题，这里混淆了colormap和get_cmap：

category_colors = plt.colormaps['RdYlGn'](np.linspace(0.15, 0.85, data.shape[1]))

 改成下面这个样子就没问题了。

category_colors = plt.get_cmap('RdYlGn')(np.linspace(0.15, 0.85, data.shape[1]))

'RdYlGn'是matplotlib中的色条，get_cmap函数是要在这个色条上取出颜色，类似于自定义colorbar了。最终成图如下，

 完整代码如下：

"""
=============================================
Discrete distribution as horizontal bar chart
=============================================

Stacked bar charts can be used to visualize discrete distributions.

This example visualizes the result of a survey in which people could rate
their agreement to questions on a five-element scale.

The horizontal stacking is achieved by calling `~.Axes.barh()` for each
category and passing the starting point as the cumulative sum of the
already drawn bars via the parameter ``left``.
