Limit the range of x in seaborn distplot KDE estimation

Question

Suppose we have an array with numbers between 0 and 1:

arr=np.array([ 0.        ,  0.        ,  0.        ,  0.        ,  0.6934264 ,
               0.        ,          


        

Answer 1

Settins plt.xlim(0, 1) beforehand should help :

plt.xlim(0, 1)
sns.distplot(arr, hist=False)

Answer 2

The correct way of doing this, is by using the clip keyword instead of range:

sns.distplot(arr, hist=False, kde_kws={'clip': (0.0, 1.0)})

which will produce:

Indeed, if you only care about the kde and not the histogram, you can use the kdeplot function, which will produce the same result:

sns.kdeplot(arr, clip=(0.0, 1.0))
