Sudheer, Although the documentation is not consistent with the following (as of v1.0.1), the X and Y arguments to contourf can be 1D arrays. Consider: >>> from pylab import * >>> x=range(100) >>> y=range(20) >>> xx,yy=meshgrid(x,y) >>> z=xx**2+yy**2 >>> contourf(x,y,z) <matplotlib.contour.QuadContourSet instance at 0x114e5fa28>
