Falsificar algunos datos más

spread = np.random.rand(50) * 100
center = np.ones(25) * 40
flier_high = np.random.rand(10) * 100 + 100
flier_low = np.random.rand(10) * -100
d2 = np.concatenate((spread, center, flier_high, flier_low))

Hacer una matriz 2-D solo funciona si todas las columnas tienen la misma longitud. Si no lo son, utilice una lista en su lugar. En realidad, esto es más eficiente porque boxplot convierte una matriz 2-D en una lista de vectores internamente de todos modos.

data = [data, d2, d2[::2]]
fig7, ax7 = plt.subplots()
ax7.set_title('Multiple Samples with Different sizes')
ax7.boxplot(data)

plt.show()
