I apologize for being overly wordy in my description, but I suppose I was worried that if I did not go into great detail about exactly what I was trying to do, someone might suggest a package that solves part of my problem, but not all of it.

I downloaded and installed matplotlib.  At first I was a bit worried because I have seem to have 3 libraries that contain python "include" files: /usr/lib/python/python27, .../python3, and .../python35, and it at least appeared to install it into the python3 directory, but my IDE uses 3.5.  Well I did some of the tutorials that are on YouTube, and it seems to work fine.

Matplotlib makes the very simple plots that I wish to make in just a few statements, (scatter plot, etc.), but to make them into representations of PI, each dot on the scatter plot or whatever has to be a different color: point 1 is color(3), point 2 is color(1), point 3 is color(4), etc.  I am not sure if matplotlib is able to make each dot in the scatterplot or whatever a differnt color in the single staement that makes to plot, or if a loop has to be set up to draw each of the dots individually in a different color, but I think it will work and with relatively simple code.

Other statements in the thread I will take under advisement, I suppose.

If I recall correctly you can make the color argument a list with the same number of elements as you have points.
