Bug summary
The method matplotlib.axes._subplots.AxesSubplot.bar has argument left which is actually the center of the bar. The name of the argument leads to unexpected results.
Code for reproduction
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
left = [0, 1, 3]
width = [1, 2, 1]
height = [1, 1, 1]
bottoms = [0, 1, 2]
# Actual
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
for l, w, h, b in zip(left, width, height, bottoms):
ax.bar(left=l, width=w, height=h, bottom=b, color='blue')
plt.show()
# Expected
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
for l, w, h, b in zip(left, width, height, bottoms):
ax.bar(left=l + w/2, width=w, height=h, bottom=b, color='blue')
plt.show()Actual outcome
