Suppose I have three data sets:
X = [1,2,3,4]
Y1 = [4,8,12,16]

I can scatter plot this:

Fix Python – Scatter plot with different text at each data point

I am trying to make a scatter plot and annotate data points with different numbers from a list.
So, for example, I want to plot y vs x and annotate with corresponding numbers from n.

z = [0.15, 0.3, 0.45, 0.6, 0.75]
n = [58, 651, 393, 203, 123]
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax1.scatter(z, y, fmt=’o’)
