Hello,

A new plot and two questions:
http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/1759/logbarchart.png

1-) How to get nicely formatted yticks while will represent my data range
(in Ax10^5 fashion  10^x works perfect as a defaul however couldn't figure
out how to do this with number times 10^x)? An interesting point is when
log=True yticks has to be called with two arguments as in the code otherwise
no ticks shown at all.

2-) This is about my ylabel, although I have mm^3 showing nicely for some
reason the closing bracket tends to stay separately. How to fix this in the
code?


Thanks.

### BEGIN CODE

http:/import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

diameters = np.array([ 7, 10, 11, 12, 16, 21, 28, 35, 38, 51])
numbers = np.array([44, 24,  7,  8,  8, 12, 16,  3,  2,  1])


http:width = 1.0
volumes = 4./3*np.pi*(diameters/2)**3
plt.bar(diameters, volumes*numbers, width=width, align='edge', log=True)
plt.axis(xmin=diameters.min()-2, xmax=diameters.max()+2, ymax =\
         (volumes*numbers).max()+20000)
plt.xlabel("Diameter (mm)", fontsize=16)
plt.ylabel(r"Number of washers x Volumes (# $mm^3$)", fontsize=16)
plt.xticks(diameters+width/2, diameters)
#plt.yticks(volumes*numbers, volumes*numbers)
#plt.yticks(np.arange(100, 2*10**5+100, 4*10**4), np.arange(100,
2*10**5+100, 4*10**4))

plt.figure()

width = 0.4
plt.bar(range(len(diameters)), volumes*numbers, width=width, align='edge')
plt.xlabel("Diameter (mm)", fontsize=16)
plt.ylabel(r"Number of washers x Volumes (# $mm^3$)", fontsize=16)
plt.xticks(np.arange(len(diameters))+width/2, diameters)
plt.axis(xmin=-width/2, xmax=len(diameters)-width)
#plt.yticks(volumes*numbers)
plt.title("Distribution Lab - Question 2", fontsize=18)


plt.show()
