# Plotting¶

PlotUncertainty creates plot of the data from the uncertainty quantification and sensitivity analysis. PlotUncertainpy plots the results for all zero and one dimensional statistical metrics, and some of the two dimensional statistical metrics It is intended as a quick way to get an overview of the data, and does not create publication ready plots. Custom plots of the data can easily be created by retrieving the results from the Data class.
