Comment (by jdemeyer):
Replying to [comment:22 ppurka]:
> Why should we go around checking for numeric types? This is not a
"critical" application that should ensure sane inputs for all kinds of
inputs. If the user sends in garbage, they will eventually get garbage out
from at least matplotlib, if not earlier in the process.
Well, it could be that the user will send some Sage numeric type, which
matplotlib might treat like garbage. A conversion like
{{{
x = float(x) # assuming that it's a float that you need
}}}
will solve both problems: it will raise a `TypeError` when true garbage is
given but it should work for all Sage numeric types.
