putting tick labels in LaTex formatted scientific notation?

[jbloom]

Is there a way to put tick labels in real scientific notation using LaTex formatting? I want something like 1e7 to appear as a 10 with the superscript exponent 7.

Yes, assuming you know the breaks.

df = pd.DataFrame({'x': [1, 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000]})

(ggplot(df)
 + geom_point(aes('x', 'x'))
 + scale_x_log10(labels=['$10^1$', '$10^3$', '$10^5$'])
)

Otherwise, you can write a function (takes breaks and returns labels enclosed in $$) to do the labelling.

def label_func(breaks):
    return ['$10^{}$'.format(int(np.log10(i))) for i in breaks]

(ggplot(df)
 + geom_point(aes('x', 'x'))
 + scale_x_log10(labels=label_func)
)

When label have Negative index, @has2k1 solution should be changed into:

def label_to_scentific_mode_func(breaks):
    return ['$10^{{{}}}$'.format(int(np.log10(i))) for i in breaks]
