Fill_between python matplotlib not working as expected (ROC curve)

I’m trying to fill in between two curves. It is supposed to be a ROC curve (with lower/upper boundaries) but I’m trying to plot only the lower boundary here for simplicity.

import numpy as np
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt

tpr_mean = np.array([1.00000000e+00, 1.00000000e+00, 1.00000000e+00, 1.00000000e+00,

       1.00000000e+00, 1.00000000e+00, 1.00000000e+00, 1.00000000e+00,
       1.00000000e+00, 1.00000000e+00, 9.83201006e-01, 9.44257692e-01,

plt.plot(tpr_mean, fpr_mean, color='red')
plt.plot(tpr_lower, fpr_mean, color='green')
plt.fill_between(tpr_mean, fpr_mean, tpr_lower, alpha=0.1, color=color)

I tried every combination for the variables in the fill_between but it always plot somewhere else. Not sure what I’m doing wrong.

>Solution :

in that case plt.fillbetweenx should do the trick

plt.plot(tpr_mean, fpr_mean, color='red')
plt.plot(tpr_lower, fpr_mean, color='green')
plt.fill_betweenx(fpr_mean, tpr_lower, tpr_mean, alpha=0.3, color='orange')
plt.show()
