Python visual unwanted summing data

Hi all,

 

So I have a python script to generate a plot with matplotlib, however if I run the exact same code in my Python ide and in Power BI I get very different results. It seems that Power BI does some sort of sum (or a different kind of opperation) which distorts the plot. Does anyone have a idea where I should look for the problem? I already checked that my columns are set to "don't summarize". 

 

Best regards,

LMeijdam

After further inspection I discovered that the fault was in the data. It got wrongly imported and power BI mistook the meaning of the "." in the numerical values.
