matplotlib examples
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
There are a variety of ways to use matplotlib, and most of them are
|
|
illustrated in the examples in this directory.
|
|
|
|
Probably the most common way people use matplotlib is with the
|
|
procedural interface, which follows the matlab/IDL/mathematica
|
|
approach of using simple procedures like "plot" or "title" to modify
|
|
the current figure. These examples are included in the "pylab_examples"
|
|
directory. If you want to write more robust scripts, eg for
|
|
production use or in a web application server, you will probably want
|
|
to use the matplotlib API for full control. These examples are found
|
|
in the "api" directory. Below is a brief description of the different
|
|
directories found here:
|
|
|
|
* animation - dynamic plots, see the tutorial at
|
|
http://www.scipy.org/Cookbook/Matplotlib/Animations
|
|
|
|
* api - working with the matplotlib API directory. See the
|
|
doc/artist_api_tut.txt in the matplotlib src directory ((PDF at
|
|
http://matplotlib.sf.net/pycon)
|
|
|
|
* data - some data files we use in the examples
|
|
|
|
* event_handling - how to interact with your figure, mouse presses,
|
|
key presses, object picking, etc. See the event handling tutorial
|
|
in the "doc" directory of the source distribution (PDF at
|
|
http://matplotlib.sf.net/pycon)
|
|
|
|
* misc - some miscellaneous examples. some demos for loading and
|
|
working with record arrays
|
|
|
|
* pylab_examples - the interface to matplotlib similar to matlab
|
|
|
|
* tests - tests used by matplotlib developers to check functionality
|
|
|
|
* units - working with unit data an custom types in matplotlib
|
|
|
|
* user_interfaces - using matplotlib in a GUI application, eg
|
|
TkInter, WXPython, pygtk, pyqt or FLTK widgets
