Seaborn: clustermap: access the reordered row/column indices

[schustischuster]

First thanks for the nice visualization library. Clustermaps look really great. I was trying to access the reordered row and column indices, but clustergrid.dendrogram_row.reordered_ind and clustergrid.dendrogram_col.reordered_ind are not working. I tried both sns.clustergrid.dendrogram_row.reordered_ind and clustergrid.dendrogram_row.reordered_ind, leading to error messages: "AttributeError: module 'seaborn' has no attribute 'clustergrid'" and "NameError: name 'clustergrid' is not defined", respectively. How should this function be used properly? An example on http://seaborn.pydata.org/generated/seaborn.clustermap.html would be helpful. Thanks again!

clustergrid is the object returned by the clustermap function. It has useful attributes, including the ones you are looking for.

For anyone landing on this page looking for an answer to the question:

To access the reordered row indices, use: clustergrid.dendrogram_row.reordered_ind
Column indices, use: clustergrid.dendrogram_col.reordered_ind
