> I assume this makes it so that the matrix has `0,1,2,3` as opposed to
putting entries between `0-1`, `1-2`, etc. I can't check this because the
branch I'm making for this decided to rebuild documentation, which takes a
while... sigh.
Okay, I think that these two things combine to make this happen, after
reading
[http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/ticker_api.html#matplotlib.ticker.MaxNLocator
this] again.
I still don't know if I like sparse and dense matrices looking so
different. So the idea is that the little circle points indicate sparse,
while the boxes indicate dense? I'm thinking of
{{{
sage: b=random_matrix(GF(2),12,sparse=True,density=0.99)
sage: matrix_plot(b)
sage: b=random_matrix(GF(2),12,density=0.99)
sage: matrix_plot(b)
}}}
Also, my favorite use case doesn't work yet, though to be fair it didn't
work before, so this shouldn't hold things up (and is a currently open
ticket). But just in case, is there a quick way to get this now? After
all, one might want the first row to be labeled 1 sometimes!
{{{
sage: M = matrix(ZZ,[[1,2,3,4],[1,4,9,16],[1,8,27,64]])
sage: matrix_plot(M)
sage: matrix_plot(M,ticks=[1,2,3,4])
ERROR: An unexpected error occurred while tokenizing input

1993 from matplotlib.ticker import OldScalarFormatter,
MaxNLocator, MultipleLocator, FixedLocator, NullLocator, Locator
-> 1994 x_locator, y_locator = ticks
1995 if x_locator is None:
1996 x_locator = MaxNLocator(**locator_options)
ValueError: too many values to unpack
}}}
I should be able to finish reviewing this later on today.
