I want to understand why the order of the text is reversed from what it should be? If I compare the first and second results, I see that the {1,1}, {2,2},... diagonal is going down the wrong diagonal. How could I alter this, such that the order is correct? For reference, here is the original question...ArrayPlot with cells labeled by corresponding values

SeedRandom[41, Method -> "Legacy"];(*for reproducibility*)  
mat = RandomReal[1, {4, 4}]  
ArrayPlot[  
 mat,  
 Epilog -> {Red, MapIndexed[
   Text[#1, Reverse[#2 - 1/2]] &, mat, {2}]},  
 Mesh -> True, ImageSize -> 400]  

mat = RandomReal[1, {4, 4}]  
ArrayPlot[  
 mat,  
 Epilog -> {Red, MapIndexed[
   Text[#2, Reverse[#2 - 1/2]] &, mat, {2}]},  
 Mesh -> True, ImageSize -> 400]

  • $\begingroup$ I think you forgot to include the Reverse. Reread J.M.'s answer, he uses Reverse[mat]. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @DumpsterDoofus yes, you are correct. Thanks for the extra set of eyes. Lol, I feel sheepish now! $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @tarhawk: It still doesn't fix your second example, but it's a step in the right direction. $\endgroup$

$\begingroup$ 
SeedRandom[41, Method -> "Legacy"];

(mat = RandomReal[1, {4, 4}]) // TableForm

enter image description here

 ArrayPlot[
     mat,
     Epilog -> 
      MapIndexed[Text[Framed[#1, Background -> White], #2 - 1/2] &,
        Transpose@Reverse@mat, {2}],
     Mesh -> True,
     PlotTheme -> "Detailed",
     ImageSize -> 400]

enter image description here

Update

To handle negative values you must specify a "matching" PlotRange

SeedRandom[41, Method -> "Legacy"];
mat = Round[RandomReal[{-1, 1}, {4, 4}], 0.01];

ArrayPlot[
 mat,
 ColorFunction -> "RedGreenSplit",
 Epilog -> 
  MapIndexed[Text[Framed[#1, Background -> White], #2 - 1/2] &,
   Transpose@Reverse@mat, {2}],
 Mesh -> True,
 PlotRange -> {-1, 1},
 PlotTheme -> "Detailed",
 ImageSize -> 400]

  • $\begingroup$ I believe that you the first argument of ArrayPlot should be mat as your values do not correspond to correct shades $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @eldo The additional transpose also did the trick for the ordering. $\endgroup$
