All,

I am still wondering why there is no comet command in matplotlib. 

I was successful with the following:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

len=200
t=np.linspace(0,2*np.pi,len)
x=np.cos(t)
y=np.sin(t)
xd=[x[0]]
yd=[y[0]]
l,=plt.plot(xd,yd)
plt.axis([-1,1,-1,1])

for i in np.arange(1,len):
        xd.append(x[i])
        yd.append(y[i])
        l.set_xdata(xd)
        l.set_ydata(yd)
        plt.draw()
        
plt.show()


But it seems that a comet function added to the matplotlib library would 
greatly simplify things for students using the interactive pylab in ipython.

Any plans?
