How about this for a stationary point:
from pylab import * def point(x,y): a=arange(x,x+1,1) b=arange(y,y+1,1) plot(a,b, 'ro', ms=3) show() This works for me. Load the module "point" Run it by typing point(x,y), where x and y are the coordinates you'd like to see in a plot, and a magical red "point" will appear in your matplotlib figure. You can change the color and size, of course, by modifying the color ('ro') and markersize ('ms= 3') keyword arguments to suit your needs. Now just put in a t parameter, I guess. hussein alshatri wrote: > > > Hi all, > > I am new with matplotlib. I want to use matplotlib/animation. > > I want to plot a moving point.
