# Scatter plot

This example showcases a simple scatter plot.

    import numpy as np
    import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

    # Fixing random state for reproducibility
    np.random.seed(19680801)

    N = 50
    x = np.random.rand(N)
    y = np.random.rand(N)
    colors = np.random.rand(N)
    area = np.pi * (15 * np.random.rand(N))**2  # 0 to 15 point radii

    plt.scatter(x, y, s=area, c=colors, alpha=0.5)
    plt.show()
