Thanks Eric! Here is corrected code that works:
import matplotlib
from datetime import *
import time
from pylab import *
def toOrd(strDate):
return datetime(*time.strptime(strDate,"%m/%d/%y")[0:5]).toordinal()
def main():
startDate = toOrd("05/24/05")
endDate = toOrd("11/21/06")
dates = range(startDate,endDate,7)
figure(1)
ax1 = subplot(211,axisbelow=True)
plot_date(dates,dates,visible = False)
ax1.bar(dates,dates, width=3.0)
ax2 = subplot(212,axisbelow=True, sharex=ax1)
plot_date(dates,dates) #,'-',color = priceColor)
show()
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
