They don't. I thought about it before, but decided to forget about it until I
could find a job where I could learn C and foc

gnuplot also ignores them.

Thanks for stepping up to the plate, Eric.
I was asleep on this side of the ocean, so I didn't join in the discussion.

Although intuitively I think of inf as very different from nan, my
default is to go with matlab like behavior in the absence of
compelling a argument otherwise. I won't be providing th

I have a question about plotting an array with an inf.
For example:
y = np.array([2.,1.,0,1.,2.])
y = 1.0 / y
So y is array([ 0.5, 1. , Inf, 1. , 0.5])
When I plot this, I get an error, of which the last line is:
OverflowError: math range error
I presume the problem is using the autoscale
