i executed the following interactions and i remained disappointed $ python Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Dec 27 2010, 00:02:40) [GCC 4.4.5] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> from pylab import * >>> f1=figure(1) >>> f2=figure(2) >>> f1 <matplotlib.figure.Figure object at 0xb745668c> >>> f2 <matplotlib.figure.Figure object at 0x8df834c> >>> plot(sin(linspace(0,10)),figure=f1) [<matplotlib.lines.Line2D object at 0x8df8fac>] >>> plot(cos(linspace(0,10)),figure=f2) [<matplotlib.lines.Line2D object at 0x8df8f0c>] >>> show() >>>
i'm surely off by one in my understanding of the plot command, as i expected a sine in figure 1 and a cosine in 2, while what i got was a blank figure 1 and both the sine and the cosine in figure 2 can anyone help me? tia gb -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
