1.1、FuncAnimation

matplotlib.animation.FuncAnimation 是 Matplotlib 库中用于创建动画的一个类。它允许你通过循环调用一个函数来更新图表，从而生成动画效果。这个函数通常被称为“更新函数”，它决定了每一帧图表的样子。FuncAnimation 类提供了一种灵活而强大的方式来创建和展示动画，使得数据可视化更加生动和直观。

（1）基本用法

使用 FuncAnimation 创建动画的基本步骤如下：

• 准备数据：首先，你需要准备好用于动画的数据。这可能包括一系列的X和Y坐标点、颜色、大小等，具体取决于你要制作的动画类型。
• 创建图形和轴：使用 Matplotlib 创建图形（Figure）和轴（Axes）对象，这些对象将作为动画的画布。
• 定义更新函数：编写一个函数，这个函数接受当前的帧号（或其他参数）作为输入，并返回一个更新后的图形元素状态。例如，如果你正在制作一个点的移动动画，这个函数可能会更新点的位置。
• 创建 FuncAnimation 对象：使用 FuncAnimation 类创建一个动画对象。你需要指定图形对象、轴对象、更新函数、帧数（或时间间隔）、以及其他可选参数（如重复次数、初始延迟等）。
• 显示或保存动画：最后，你可以使用 Matplotlib 的显示功能（如 plt.show()）来查看动画，或者将其保存为文件（如GIF、MP4等）。

（2）示例代码

python">import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib.animation import FuncAnimation# 准备数据
x = np.linspace(0, 2 * np.pi, 100)
y = np.sin(x)# 创建图形和轴
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
line, = ax.plot([], [], 'r-')  # 初始化一个空线条对象
ax.set_xlim(0, 2 * np.pi)      # 设置X轴范围
ax.set_ylim(-1.5, 1.5)         # 设置Y轴范围# 定义更新函数
def update(frame):line.set_data(x[:frame], y[:frame])  # 更新线条数据return line,# 创建 FuncAnimation 对象
ani = FuncAnimation(fig, update, frames=len(x), interval=50, blit=True)# 显示动画
plt.show()

在这个例子中，update 函数根据当前的帧号（frame）更新线条的数据，使得线条逐渐变长，模拟了一个点沿正弦曲线移动的动画效果。

再看一个例子

python">#coding=utf-8
import sysimport numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.animation as animationfig, ax = plt.subplots()x = np.arange(0, 2*np.pi, 0.01)
line, = ax.plot(x, np.sin(x))def animate(i):line.set_ydata(np.sin(x + i/10.0))return line,def init():line.set_ydata(np.ma.array(x, mask=True))return line,ani = animation.FuncAnimation(fig, animate, np.arange(1, 200), init_func=init,interval=25, blit=True)
ani.save("animation.gif", writer="imagemagick", fps=30)
plt.show()

（3）matplotlib.animation.FuncAnimation

python">class matplotlib.animation.FuncAnimation(fig, func, frames=None, init_func=None, fargs=None, save_count=None, *, cache_frame_data=True, **kwargs)

python">def __init__(self,fig: Figure,func: (...) -> Iterable[Artist],frames: Iterable | int | () -> Generator | None = ...,init_func: () -> Iterable[Artist] | None = ...,fargs: tuple[Any, ...] | None = ...,save_count: int | None = ...,*,cache_frame_data: bool = ...,**kwargs: Any) -> None
`TimedAnimation` subclass that makes an animation by repeatedly calling a function *func*.  .. note::  You must store the created Animation in a variable that lives as long as the animation should run. Otherwise, the Animation object will be garbage-collected and the animation stops.  Parameters ---------- fig : `~matplotlib.figure.Figure` The figure object used to get needed events, such as draw or resize.  func : callable The function to call at each frame. The first argument will be the next value in *frames*. Any additional positional arguments can be supplied using `functools.partial` or via the *fargs* parameter.  The required signature is::  def func(frame, *fargs) -> iterable_of_artists  It is often more convenient to provide the arguments using `functools.partial`. In this way it is also possible to pass keyword arguments. To pass a function with both positional and keyword arguments, set all arguments as keyword arguments, just leaving the *frame* argument unset::  def func(frame, art, *, y=None): ...  ani = FuncAnimation(fig, partial(func, art=ln, y='foo'))  If ``blit == True``, *func* must return an iterable of all artists that were modified or created. This information is used by the blitting algorithm to determine which parts of the figure have to be updated. The return value is unused if ``blit == False`` and may be omitted in that case.  frames : iterable, int, generator function, or None, optional Source of data to pass *func* and each frame of the animation  - If an iterable, then simply use the values provided. If the iterable has a length, it will override the *save_count* kwarg.  - If an integer, then equivalent to passing ``range(frames)``  - If a generator function, then must have the signature::  def gen_function() -> obj  - If *None*, then equivalent to passing ``itertools.count``.  In all of these cases, the values in *frames* is simply passed through to the user-supplied *func* and thus can be of any type.  init_func : callable, optional A function used to draw a clear frame. If not given, the results of drawing from the first item in the frames sequence will be used. This function will be called once before the first frame.  The required signature is::  def init_func() -> iterable_of_artists  If ``blit == True``, *init_func* must return an iterable of artists to be re-drawn. This information is used by the blitting algorithm to determine which parts of the figure have to be updated. The return value is unused if ``blit == False`` and may be omitted in that case.  fargs : tuple or None, optional Additional arguments to pass to each call to *func*. Note: the use of `functools.partial` is preferred over *fargs*. See *func* for details.  save_count : int, optional Fallback for the number of values from *frames* to cache. This is only used if the number of frames cannot be inferred from *frames*, i.e. when it's an iterator without length or a generator.  interval : int, default: 200 Delay between frames in milliseconds.  repeat_delay : int, default: 0 The delay in milliseconds between consecutive animation runs, if *repeat* is True.  repeat : bool, default: True Whether the animation repeats when the sequence of frames is completed.  blit : bool, default: False Whether blitting is used to optimize drawing. Note: when using blitting, any animated artists will be drawn according to their zorder; however, they will be drawn on top of any previous artists, regardless of their zorder.  cache_frame_data : bool, default: True Whether frame data is cached. Disabling cache might be helpful when frames contain large objects.
Params:
fig – The figure object used to get needed events, such as draw or resize.
func – The function to call at each frame. The first argument will be the next value in *frames*. Any additional positional arguments can be supplied using `functools.partial` or via the *fargs* parameter. The required signature is:: def func(frame, *fargs) -> iterable_of_artists It is often more convenient to provide the arguments using `functools.partial`. In this way it is also possible to pass keyword arguments. To pass a function with both positional and keyword arguments, set all arguments as keyword arguments, just leaving the *frame* argument unset:: def func(frame, art, *, y=None): ... ani = FuncAnimation(fig, partial(func, art=ln, y='foo')) If ``blit == True``, *func* must return an iterable of all artists that were modified or created. This information is used by the blitting algorithm to determine which parts of the figure have to be updated. The return value is unused if ``blit == False`` and may be omitted in that case.
frames – Source of data to pass *func* and each frame of the animation - If an iterable, then simply use the values provided. If the iterable has a length, it will override the *save_count* kwarg. - If an integer, then equivalent to passing ``range(frames)`` - If a generator function, then must have the signature:: def gen_function() -> obj - If *None*, then equivalent to passing ``itertools.count``. In all of these cases, the values in *frames* is simply passed through to the user-supplied *func* and thus can be of any type.
init_func – A function used to draw a clear frame. If not given, the results of drawing from the first item in the frames sequence will be used. This function will be called once before the first frame. The required signature is:: def init_func() -> iterable_of_artists If ``blit == True``, *init_func* must return an iterable of artists to be re-drawn. This information is used by the blitting algorithm to determine which parts of the figure have to be updated. The return value is unused if ``blit == False`` and may be omitted in that case.
fargs – Additional arguments to pass to each call to *func*. Note: the use of `functools.partial` is preferred over *fargs*. See *func* for details.
save_count – Fallback for the number of values from *frames* to cache. This is only used if the number of frames cannot be inferred from *frames*, i.e. when it's an iterator without length or a generator.
cache_frame_data – Whether frame data is cached. Disabling cache might be helpful when frames contain large objects.

• fig：图形对象（Figure），用于获取绘制、调整大小等事件。这是动画的画布。
• func：可调用对象（函数），每帧调用的函数。该函数的第一个参数将是 frames 中的下一个值。任何其他的位置参数可以通过 fargs 参数提供。如果 blit 为 True，则该函数必须返回一个被修改或创建的所有图形元素（artists）的可迭代对象。
• frames：可迭代对象、整数、生成器函数或 None，可选。用于传递给 func 和动画的每一帧的数据源。如果是可迭代对象，则直接使用提供的值。如果是一个整数，则相当于传递 range(frames)。如果是一个生成器函数，则必须具有特定的签名。如果为 None，则相当于传递 itertools.count。
• init_func：可调用对象（函数），可选。用于绘制清空画面的函数。如果未提供，则将使用 frames 序列中的第一个项目的绘图结果。此函数将在第一帧之前被调用一次。如果 blit 为 True，则 init_func 必须返回一个将被重新绘制的图形元素（artists）的可迭代对象。
• fargs：元组或 None，可选。传递给每次调用 func 的附加参数。
• save_count：整数，可选。要缓存的 frames 中的值的数量。
• interval：数字，可选。帧之间的延迟时间（以毫秒为单位）。默认为 200。
• blit：布尔值，可选。控制是否使用 blitting 来优化绘制。当使用 blitting 时，只有变化的图形元素会被重新绘制，从而提高性能。
• cache_frame_data：布尔值，可选。控制是否缓存帧数据。默认为 True。

方法说明

• save：将动画保存为电影文件。
• to_html5_video：将动画转换为 HTML5 视频。
• to_jshtml：生成动画的 HTML 表示形式。

（4）注意事项

• 性能：对于复杂的动画，可能需要优化性能，比如通过减少每次更新的数据量（使用 blit=True 参数）或调整帧的更新间隔。
• 兼容性：保存动画时，不同的文件格式（如GIF、MP4）可能需要不同的编解码器支持。确保你的环境中安装了必要的编解码器。
• 交互性：动画在Jupyter Notebook等交互式环境中可能表现不同，需要根据具体环境调整显示方式。

思路，计算前后帧坐标点数量的差 diff ，然后 while 循环来复制以实现数量平衡 x = x + x[:diff]，最后插帧平滑移动 x_temp = (x + (x_path / n_frames) * i)
