I just started to check out the video, looks interesting and useful,
thanks for the link.

 Also you can take a look at this book: Beginning Python Visualization: 
 Crafting Visual Transformation Scripts

I had not heard of this book before, I'll look for more information
on it.

 Good luck on your plotting adventures.

Thanks - it's fun to learn new things.

Cheers,

   There is no quick reference, though one would be handy.  If you scroll
 down to the bottom of the main page at
 
 http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/index.html
 
 there is a summary of the pyplot plotting commands with links to the 
 full docs.  You can at least see most everything that is available in 
 pyplot in one place.

ah .. nice, thanks!

Works here with XP Prof SP2 and Firefox 3.0.9 ... odd.

Works here.

Don't know it's a browser issue or something related to your connection.

Best to wait a reply from John Hunter. He might have it uploaded somewhere
else.

And yes developers knows a lot about their product then users. Wish there
were more handy instructional videos -showing step-by-step what is on
throughout the program. I know I am asking too much :)

[Matplotlib-users] pylab quick reference? (

2009-04-22 Thread Esmail
Hello all,

Does anyone know of a quick reference for the various plotting
functions for pylab? I'm just getting started with this
after years of work with gnuplot.

I found this

   http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/pyplot_api.html

which is very comprehensive and would be good for digging into
specific commands. What I'm looking for is something small enough
to print out ( 10-20 pages) that gives a sufficient overview so
that I know what's available.

I've looked on the web without much success. I'd be grateful if
you have any pointers.

Thanks!
Esmail

Selam Esmail,

I do not think there is an easy way of learning matplotlib. (Nor there is a
quick ref to make your life easier.)

I have learnt mostly by using matplotlib for my homeworks ( while everyone
using IDL or Matlab) --which is in my opinion has been best way to adapt
myself into scientific Python lands. Having a very appealing visual face has
helped me a lot to progress in this way.

What I recommend you is: watching John Hunter's video at Matplotlib by John
D. Hunter http://videolectures.net/mloss08_hunter_mat/. His introduction
of matplotlib and examples he use could be very interesting to watch for
you.

Also you can take a look at this book: Beginning Python Visualization:
Crafting Visual Transformation Scripts

Good luck on your plotting adventures.

Gökhan
