{{{
[23:03] <jason> okay, so basically vector plots are junk unless you plot
it with aspect_ratio=1
[23:03] <jason> This is *very* good to know.
[23:05] <mhansen> If I get bored, I may change it to use actual arrows.
[23:06] <jason> You could use my new arrow class :)
[23:06] <mhansen> Yep
[23:06] <jason> well, you've probably got enough on your plate to not get
bored for a while
[23:06] <jason> for now, I think we ought to change the plot_vector_field
and plot_slope_field documentation
[23:06] <jason> to put a huge warning in there that these plots must be
plotted with aspect_ratio=1 to make any sense
[23:07] <jason> And maybe also to issue a warning when actually drawing a
plot if it's not aspect_ratio=1
