Now I have written down the problem with MWE I can see that the mapping
of the colours to the patches of the histogram is wrong. The following
values illustrate the problem much better
efficiencies = [51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59]
core_hours = [ 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45]
The histogram is just being constructed over the actual data, which is
reasonable. However, I want the histogram over the entire range 0-100,
so I just need to add the 'range' parameter:
n, bins, patches = axis[1].hist(efficiencies, n_bins, range=(0, 100),
histtype='bar', orientation='horizontal')
D'oh!
