Maybe not directly as a "plot style". But... If you need to fill the curve with a color you can see this example: http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/screenshots/fill_demo.py If you need the "bar" itself you can use the bar() function. If you need impulses composed by just "a line" you can use this function: def impulse(X, Y, color='blue', **kwargs): """Plot an "impulse" graph similar to the gnuplot 'impulse' function.""" if len(X) != len(Y): raise ValueError, "X and Y data must be of the same length." ax = gca() for x, y in zip(X, Y): ax.plot([x, x], [0, y], color=color, **kwargs) You can pass to it any plot() keyword-argument to customize line style.
