import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt x = np.arange(2, 5, 0.3) y = np.random.randn(len(x), 4) # dummy data for illustration plt.plot(x, y) So with the data array as above, it would be plt.plot(data[:,0], data[:, 1:]) Eric > > I hope that helps. > > Ben Root ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Matplotlib-users mailing list Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-users
