Yup, I'm obviously as biased as they come, but I think that the immediate
feedback and the ability to keep plots together with their source code,
makes learning and experimenting with mpl (or other plotting libs) an ideal
use case for the notebook.
The only catch to be aware of is that, in order for a simple
plot(x)
to produce a figure without having to manually call show(), we do a bit of
magic behind the scenes. And that magic can occasionally lead to duplicate
figures when you start manually calling display(fig) yourself. So in that
more advanced scenario, you will need to add the occasional plt.close()
call.
HTH,
