Matplotlib update one plot function when multiple functions plotted on same figure

I have a case where I plot multiple functions on one figure but want to update one function while not having to re-plot the other function.

A very simplistic example:

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
   
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
x = np.arange(0,10,0.1)

ax1 = plt.subplot(1,1,1)
ax2 = plt.subplot(1,1,1)

ax1.plot(x,1*np.sin(x),'b-')
ax2.plot(x,2*np.sin(x),'g-')

enter image description here

I want to clear/update the data plotted in ax2 so that the data in ax1 isn't cleared or needs to be replotted.

Using ax2.clear() or ax2.cla() both clear the entire figure.

Are there any suggestions on how I can either update just the data in ax2 or a better way to control the plotting data for multiple functions on the same plot independently?

The actual case scenario plots satellite data (ax1) on a projected map with contour lines (ax2) overlayed. So the motivation is not to replot the satellite data due to time, but to keep the satellite data and update the contour plots (ax2) and save the figure at each step in a for-loop.

How to split a rinex file if I need 24 hours data

Trying to divide rinex file using the command gfzrnx but getting this error. While doing that getting this error msg 'gfzrnx' is not recognized as an internal or external command Trying to split rinex file using the command gfzrnx. also install'gfzrnx'. my doubt is I need to run this program in 'gfzrnx' or in 'cmdprompt'. I am expecting a rinex file with 24 hrs or 1 day data.I Have 48 hrs data in RINEX format. Please help me to solve this issue. source https://stackoverflow.com/questions/75385367/how-to-split-a-rinex-file-if-i-need-24-hours-data

ValueError: X has 10 features, but LinearRegression is expecting 1 features as input

So, I am trying to predict the model but its throwing error like it has 10 features but it expacts only 1. So I am confused can anyone help me with it? more importantly its not working for me when my friend runs it. It works perfectly fine dose anyone know the reason about it? cv = KFold(n_splits = 10) all_loss = [] for i in range(9): # 1st for loop over polynomial orders poly_order = i X_train = make_polynomial(x, poly_order) loss_at_order = [] # initiate a set to collect loss for CV for train_index, test_index in cv.split(X_train): print('TRAIN:', train_index, 'TEST:', test_index) X_train_cv, X_test_cv = X_train[train_index], X_test[test_index] t_train_cv, t_test_cv = t[train_index], t[test_index] reg.fit(X_train_cv, t_train_cv) loss_at_order.append(np.mean((t_test_cv - reg.predict(X_test_cv))**2)) # collect loss at fold all_loss.append(np.mean(loss_at_order)) # collect loss at order plt.plot(np.log(al...

Sorting large arrays of big numeric stings

I was solving bigSorting() problem from hackerrank: Consider an array of numeric strings where each string is a positive number with anywhere from to digits. Sort the array's elements in non-decreasing, or ascending order of their integer values and return the sorted array. I know it works as follows: def bigSorting(unsorted): return sorted(unsorted, key=int) But I didnt guess this approach earlier. Initially I tried below: def bigSorting(unsorted): int_unsorted = [int(i) for i in unsorted] int_sorted = sorted(int_unsorted) return [str(i) for i in int_sorted] However, for some of the test cases, it was showing time limit exceeded. Why is it so? PS: I dont know exactly what those test cases were as hacker rank does not reveal all test cases. source https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73007397/sorting-large-arrays-of-big-numeric-stings
