(crossposted to sci.math) I'm looking for a tool which will take a dataset of tuples indicating the year of birth and death of a person:
(1872, 1950, "Sri Aurobindo") (1821, 1910, "Mary Baker Eddy") (1831, 1891, "HP. Blavatksy") And graph them out, in bars, annotating them with the person's name. A simple spreadsheet would've worked, but they seem to start from zero. Thus, I would only be able to indicate the span of life (by subtracting death year from birth year). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
