Hello folks.
I am trying to teach pylab to use latex to write numbers with an
exponent in the plot legend.
So far my plot labels are formatted with scientific notation, where
I use the format operate:
import pylab
ra_list,b = data
pylab.plot(ra_list,b, label='Ra = ' + "{0:4.2e}".format(ra_list[i]))
pylab.legend()
pylab.show()
What I ultimately want is that the exponent shows up as an exponent,
a la LaTeX style in the legend: $\mathrm{Ra} = 10^6$.
Does anybody know of a way how to do this with pylab?
Cheers, Ralph
