In fact, f1 score is the harmonic mean of precision and recall.
For this, we have to import the confusion matrix module from sklearn library which helps us to generate the confusion matrix. Precision, recall, sensitivity and specificity are terms that help us recognise this naive behaviour. Precision also called positive predictive value the ratio of correct positive predictions to the total predicted positives. You can easily express them in tfish way by looking at the formulas. You want to arrange your labels so that true positives are set on the diagonal 0,0,1,1,2,2 this is the arrangement that youre going to find with confusion matrices generated from sklearn and other packages.
