[Matplotlib-users] switching between noninteractive and interactive plot?

2008-06-20 Thread Lubos Vrbka
hi guys, my problem is probably simple, but i wasn't able to solve it. i use matplotlib with scipy/numpy (i.e., via pylab). in my program, i'd like to display interactively the convergence of a mathematical procedure. in my case this means that i have to display graphs of cca 12 functions (some th
