I got g++, pygtk and everything else I could think that matplotlib

I'm plotting some histograms with hist() --- well, actually with
ax.hist(), where ax is an axis --- and the "normed=1" isn't working
the way I would expect.
from pylab import *
data = sin(arange(0.0,100,.01))
fig = figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.hist(data,bins=50,normed=1,align='cen

A friend of mine from MIT who is just finishing his PhD was over for
dinner tonight. We discussed the learning curve of matplotlib and
compared it with other plotting systems that we've both used,
including gnuplot & PyX.
My friend said that he thought that the learning curve was really

Yep. I would like to pass in a list of lists, where each sublist (or array)
describes a boxplot to plot.
Meanwhile, i've been having fun with histograms. The Y axis labels are a
pain. I think defaulting to scientific notation, as matplotlib frequently
does, is annoying...

Sergio,
I think the line you see comes from plotting two shape on top one another. You
may want to redefine your polygon:
the easier would be something like:
tt = concatenate((t,t[::-1]))
vtx = concatenate((s3,s2[::-1]))
fill(tt, vtx, '#e9ccce', linewidth=0)
With the first command, you build a s
Hi,
I am a new user of matplotlib.
First of all I would like to say that the people working on matplotlib is
doing a great job.
Well, I have tried to use the 'fill', but I cannot get rid of the lines.
I have tried to use 'linewidth=0' at the end, but it did not work.
Could somebody, please, tel

Hi,
Each time I'm working on C++ codes using vector or valarray, I would
like to be able to plot them.
The problem is that there is no straitforward way to do that in C++.
My goal is not to code a QT or GTK application but only to be able to
plot 1D and 2D things from one given large C++ code with

I'm still not sure I understand where the problem is:
You want several boxes in a plot ?
Something along the lines of what I already sent you ?

Well, matplotlib relies on some packages to handle data arrays. It's probably

I agree. It may be common in matlab, but it really doesn't belong in
python.

Yeah, I agree, the situation is far from ideal. Besides, it turns out that
there's no deep magic behind have_dates,
It would be useful if grid had two options:
drawHorizontalLines = True
drawVerticalLines = True
This way, people who look for suppressing the X or Y lines would find
it in the logical location.
