Ψ (Psi) is very often used greek mathematical letters. They are mostly used in physics and other mathematical expressions, especially, when there is topic related change (for example charge and electrodynamics) and therefore, they have registered importance in languages.

Therefore, matplotlib has defined a command for usage.

In this article, we are going to add Ψ using a command in matplotlib.

plt.text(3, 0.4, r'$\Psi=100$')
#Adding Ψ as text

plt.title(‘Psi 'r'$\Psi=100$')
#Adding Ψ in title of the figure

plt.xlabel('Psi ('r'$\Psi=100)$')
#Adding Ψ in x axis label of the figure

plt.ylabel('Psi ('r'$\Psi=100)$')
#Adding Ψ in y axis label of the figure

Python code for adding psi in plot label

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

x = np.arange(10)
y = np.cos(x)*np.exp(x/5)

#  Psi
# In text
plt.figure()
plt.plot(x,y, '-o', color=  'purple')
plt.title('Psi')
plt.text(3, -2.2, r'$\Psi=100$')
plt.show()

# In title
plt.figure()
plt.plot(x,y, '-o', color=  'purple')
plt.title('  Psi 'r'$\Psi=100$')
plt.show()

# In x-axis label
plt.figure()
plt.plot(x,y, '-o', color=  'purple')
plt.xlabel('  Psi ('r'$\Psi=100)$')
plt.show()

# In y-axis label
plt.figure()
plt.plot(x,y, '-o', color=  'purple')
plt.ylabel('  Psi ('r'$\Psi=100)$')
plt.show()

Output:

Output is as Figure
