 useful. Quick remarks:

 error term can be controlled?

 what would `scaled=True` and `scaled=False` do?

 error term?

 if there is no error term, then there is no need to rescale nor plot,
 `all( ... for ...)` should do the trick in that case.

 Within a finite amount of time, I could not get it to work. In any case,
 this is distinct from doctesting; thus one would have to repeat all
 commands to generate the plot. Sage preparsing apparently does not work
 here. Then I got a strange error message.

 For doctests, I rather think that we might want to output the list itself
 instead of the list plot, perhaps already piped through `RIF` or something
 like that. That would make useful doctests (and could be used throughout
 the modules during review phases). Thus there could be a flag
 `return_list=True` or something like that (or a separate method computing
 the list which could be used in this method here ...).
