matplotlib.patches.Arrow

class matplotlib.patches.Arrow(x, y, dx, dy, width=1.0, **kwargs)

An arrow patch.

Draws an arrow from (x, y) to (x + dx, y + dy). The width of the arrow is scaled by width.

Parameters:

x : scalar

x coordinate of the arrow tail

y : scalar

y coordinate of the arrow tail

dx : scalar

Arrow length in the x direction

dy : scalar

Arrow length in the y direction

width : scalar, optional (default: 1)

Scale factor for the width of the arrow. With a default value of 1, the tail width is 0.2 and head width is 0.6.
