*shrug* Because the designers of matplotlib suck at designing a good, easy to use, easy to understand, simple API? Because they're not good at writing documentation? I dunno. It is hard to write an API which is both *obvious* and *powerful*, but the few times I tried using matplotlib I found it baroque and confusing. -- Steve _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
