Hi folks,
I've added this little bit of code to the default ipython -pylab startup:
exec ("import numpy\n"
"import numpy as np\n"
"import matplotlib\n"
"import matplotlib.pylab as pylab\n"
"try:\n"
" import matplotlib.pyplot as plt\n"
"except ImportError:\n"
" pass\n"
) in user_ns
to try and encourage use of the 'canonical' ways of calling/executing
numpy and mpl calls. This is just in my branch, not publicly visible
yet. I wanted to know:
1. If I should keep the try/except around.
2. If this is your 'approved' manner of loading. It worries me a bit
that if we promote pyplot/plt as the entry point, it needs a proper
docstring. Just try 'pylab?' vs 'pyplot?' and you'll see the
difference.
Cheers,
f
