"""
This is an object-orient plotting library.
A procedural interface is provided by the companion pylab
module, which may be imported directly, e.g.
from pylab import *
or using ipython:
ipython -pylab
For the most part, direct use of the object-oriented library
is encouraged when programming rather than working
interactively. The exceptions are the pylab commands
figure(), subplot(), show(), and savefig(), which can
greatly simplify scripting.
Modules include:
axes: defines the Axes class. Most pylab commands are
wrappers for Axes methods. The axes module is the
highest level of OO access to the library.
figure: defines Figure class.
artist: defines the Artist base class for all classes
that draw things.
line: defines Line2D class for drawing lines and markers
patches: defines classes for drawing polygons
text: defines Text, TextWithDash, and Annotate classes
image: defines AxesImage and FigureImage classes
collections: classes for efficient drawing of groups of
lines or polygons
colors: classes for interpreting color specifications
and for making colormaps
cm: colormaps and the ScalarMappable mixin class for
providing color mapping functionality to other
classes
ticker: classes for calculating tick mark locations and
for formatting tick labels
backends: a subpackage with modules for various gui
libraries and output formats
The base matplotlib namespace includes:
rcParams: a dictionary of default configuration
settings. It is initialized by code which may be
overridded by a matplotlibrc file.
rc(): a function for setting groups of rcParams values
use(): a function for setting the matplotlib backend.
If used, this function must be called immediately
after importing matplotlib for the first time. In
particular, it must be called *before* importing
pylab (if pylab is imported).
matplotlib is written by John D. Hunter (jdh2358 at
gmail.com).
