When I tried placing that line in a couple of places, I got an error:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/bin $ ./barchart
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./barchart", line 6, in ?
fig = figure((8,6), dpi=100)
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/pyplot.py", line 186, in
figure
FigureClass=FigureClass,
File
"/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_gtkagg.py",
line 44, in new_figure_manager
return FigureManagerGTKAgg(canvas, num)
File
"/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_gtk.py", line
405, in __init__
self.window.set_title("Figure %d" % num)
TypeError: not all arguments converted during string formatting
Are there other things it needs? (I tried placing a space so "8,6" would
read "8, 6", but it didn't significantly change the error.)
