Hello everybody, I'm in the process of replacing R by matplotlib to plot all of our charts.
I'm hacking the PDF backend because I need this format to import charts in ConTeXt (this is TeX macro package, similar to LaTeX, we use to produce PDF reports). My first question, very basic, is why function is_string_like, in module cbook, doesn't simply return isinstance(s, types.StringTypes) instead of try: obj + '' except (TypeError, ValueError): return 0 return 1 Thanks for your work, Nicolas -- Garden - Marketing & Datamining Consultancy Nicolas Grilly Tel +33 1 45 72 48 78 Mob +33 6 03 00 25 34 www.garden-paris.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
