+
+The **`.xlim()`** function is a convenient utility in [`matplotlib.pyplot`](https://www.codecademy.com/resources/docs/matplotlib/pyplot) that is used to get or set the x-axis limits of the current plot. It allows you to control the visible range of data on the x-axis, zoom in on specific sections, or ensure consistency across multiple plots.
+
+The primary use cases for `.xlim()` include:
+
+- Focusing on a particular range of x-values.
+- Maintaining consistent axis scaling between multiple plots.
+- Preventing automatic resizing that hides important data.
+
+## Syntax
+
+```pseudo
+matplotlib.pyplot.xlim(left=None, right=None, emit=True, auto=False, *, xmin=None, xmax=None)
+```
+
+**Parameters:**
+
+- `left` or `xmin`: Lower limit of the x-axis.
+- `right` or `xmax`: Upper limit of the x-axis.
+- `emit`: Whether observers are notified of the axis limit change (default: True).
+- `auto`: If True, turns on automatic scaling.
+
+**Return value:**
+
+The `.xlim()` function returns a tuple containing (xmin, xmax) representing the current x-axis limits.
+
+## Example 1: Basic X-Axis Limit Setting with `.xlim()`
+
+This example shows how to set specific x-axis limits using `.xlim()`.
+
+```py
+import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
+import numpy as np
+
+x = np.linspace(0, 20, 100)
+y = np.sin(x)
+
+plt.plot(x, y, color='purple', linewidth=2)
+plt.title('Sine Wave with Custom X Limits')
+plt.xlabel('X')
+plt.ylabel('sin(x)')
+
+# Set x-axis limits
+plt.xlim(0, 10)
+
+plt.grid(True)
+plt.show()
+```
+
+The output generated by this code will be:
+
+![Line plot showing sine wave with limited x-axis range](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SrikartikMateti/docs/main/media/xlim-Plot-1.png)
+
+This code plots a sine wave from 0 to 20 on the x-axis, but the `plt.xlim(0, 10)` command restricts the visible range to only show data between x = 0 and x = 10. As a result, you see only the first half of the sine wave. The curve appears smooth and purple, with grid lines and labeled axes for clarity.
+
+## Example 2: Get Current Axis Limits
+
+You can call `.xlim()` with no arguments to retrieve the current axis limits
+
+```py
+import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
+
+plt.plot([0, 1, 2, 3], [10, 20, 25, 30])
+print(plt.xlim())  # Outputs current x-axis limits
+```
+
+The output generated by this code will be:
+
+![Line plot of points (0,10), (1,20), (2,25), (3,30) with automatically determined x-axis limits.](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SrikartikMateti/docs/main/media/xlim-Plot-2.png)
+
+In this case, the output:
+(np.float64(-0.15), np.float64(3.15))
+indicates that Matplotlib automatically adds a small margin around the plotted points for better visualization.
+You can also use `.xlim()` after plotting to dynamically adjust the x-axis limits, as shown in Example 1.
