# ListPlot a list of Associations, with each pair in Association a different color

As the title states, I'd like to ListPlot a list of Associations, with each pair in Association (i.e. a point in the plot) a different color.

Example set:

{<|9.59201 -> 1.77876, 7.90731 -> -0.196118, 10.1576 -> 0.914597,
8.35059 -> 1.54213, 8.61681 -> -0.32721, 8.61687 -> 0.841388,
8.71977 -> 0.775458, 8.04974 -> -0.05546|>, <|11.3369 -> 1.71693,
10.2098 -> 1.12961, 9.50776 -> 0.686906, 9.73273 -> 0.0918487,
8.63463 -> -0.551922, 9.69208 -> 0.0742091, 8.9928 -> 0.246726,
7.99068 -> 0.74243|>, <|30.1425 -> 7.22639, 27.3945 -> 2.77409,
33.4071 -> 13.1696, 29.2098 -> 2.26177, 27.0366 -> 1.54904,
29.9498 -> 0.379177, 25.5956 -> -0.373022,
29.3194 -> 4.75372|>, <|21.4029 -> 1.84701, 21.7417 -> -1.72672,
23.5003 -> -4.96554, 21.8775 -> -4.55523, 24.4923 -> -2.542,
22.1722 -> 3.32604, 26.3751 -> -0.232237,
22.2524 -> -1.3161|>, <|23.7269 -> 5.57226, 22.3803 -> 0.569165,
26.5645 -> 0.623679, 21.6979 -> -0.707441, 17.283 -> -2.45536,
20.3572 -> 1.23667, 20.9486 -> -2.83034,
21.0028 -> 1.51677|>, <|19.7322 -> -0.364163, 19.0351 -> -0.368039,
19.3306 -> -4.58427, 20.5308 -> -3.3369, 19.3743 -> 0.0137566,
25.7891 -> 13.2349, 18.5857 -> 1.42911,
19.0113 -> -0.679348|>, <|28.1422 -> 10.7682, 24.0284 -> 2.00734,
30.2609 -> 3.3972, 27.7815 -> 7.30809, 22.3967 -> 3.78583,
27.2537 -> -4.45777, 22.1055 -> -2.03305, 25.1709 -> 5.63689|>}

• Each association has different color or each point? With 56 points there it will be hard to get distinguishable colors. p.s. have you tried anything? – Kuba Jan 25 '16 at 10:32
• That's my question too. Can you explain in clearer terms how the colour of each point will be determined? – Szabolcs Jan 25 '16 at 10:32
• Ah yes, sorry, Indeed, 7 separate plots of 8 points. I tried Table[ ListPlot[data[[r]],PlotStyle ->{#, PointSize[0.02]} & /@ (Hue[#, 0.5, 1] & /@ (Range[8]/8))] ,{r,7}] but I can't manage to get them colored separately – user18798 Jan 25 '16 at 10:32
• So in each of those 7 separate plots, each point has a different color? – Kuba Jan 25 '16 at 10:34
• Yup, each first key-value pair should have the same color across plots – user18798 Jan 25 '16 at 10:35

We have to convert associations, e.g: <|1->2, 3->4|> to something like { { {1,2} }, {{3,4}}} so, not to the lists of pairs but lists of list with one element which is a pair. Then ListPlot will take those elements as separate plots.

• @user18798 I don't know what do you mean ;) p.s. it's not safe to keep coordinates in Association take a look at <|1->2, 2->5, 1->5|>, it will merge duplicates which is not always something one would want. – Kuba Jan 25 '16 at 10:45
• @user18798 You can use similar transformation inside ListPlot, mapping over list of associations so you can still refer to keys and values in ListPlot. – Kuba Jan 25 '16 at 10:58
