Change y range to start from 0 with matplotlib

I am using matplotlib to plot data. Here's a code that does something similar: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt f, ax = plt.subplots(1) xdata = [1, 4, 8] ydata = [10, 20, 30] ax.plot(xdata, ydata) plt.show(f) This shows a line in a graph with the y axis that goes from 10 to 30. While I am satisfied with the x range, I would like to change the y range to start from 0 and adjust on the ymax to show everything. My current solution is to do: ax.set_ylim(0, max(ydata)) However I am wondering if there is a way to just say: autoscale but starts from 0.
The range must be set after the plot. import matplotlib.pyplot as plt f, ax = plt.subplots(1) xdata = [1, 4, 8] ydata = [10, 20, 30] ax.plot(xdata, ydata) ax.set_ylim(ymin=0) plt.show(f) If ymin is changed before plotting, this will result in a range of [0, 1]. Edit: the ymin argument has been replaced by bottom: ax.set_ylim(bottom=0) Documentation: https://matplotlib.org/stable/api/_as_gen/matplotlib.axes.Axes.set_ylim.html You can do the same on the x axis with left and right: ax.set_xlim(left=0) Documentation: https://matplotlib.org/stable/api/_as_gen/matplotlib.axes.Axes.set_xlim.html
