Matplotlib is a library in Python and it is numerical - mathematical extension for NumPy library. The Axes Class contains most of the figure elements: Axis, Tick, Line2D, Text, Polygon, etc., and sets the coordinate system. And the instances of Axes supports callbacks through a callbacks attribute.
The Axes.axvline() function in axes module of matplotlib library is used to add a vertical line across the axis.

matplotlib.axes.Axes.axvline() Function
Syntax: Axes.axvline(self, x=0, ymin=0, ymax=1, **kwargs) Parameters: This method accept the following parameters that are described below:Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.axes.Axes.axhline() function in matplotlib.axes: Example 1:Returns: This returns the following:
- x: This parameter is the x position in data coordinates of the vertical line with default value of 0.
- ymin: This parameter should be between 0 and 1, 0 being the bottom of the plot, 1 the top of the plot.Its default value of 0.
- ymax: This parameter should be between 0 and 1, 0 being the bottom of the plot, 1 the top of the plot. Its default value of 1.
- lines:This returns the list of Line2D objects representing the plotted data.
