99.9% of the time I am using pyplot, as it usually does what I want without me having to understand an api. I don't care so much if pyplot agrees with matlab or not, but it should be something easy that new users can pick up quickly.

To: matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net Date: Wednesday, April 30, 2014, 7:49 AM I've never used matlab (and hope never to have to). But I've been using pyplot api for mpl for quite a while. Is there any good reason to move to the "native" mpl api and drop pyplot? I ask because as I understand, pyplot is intended as a matlab workalike, and since I never learned matlab I have no need for that crutch. OTOH, I'm quite used to the pyplot api at this point. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Accelerate Dev Cycles with Automated Cross-Browser Testing - For FREE Instantly run your Selenium tests across 300+ browser/OS combos.
