The behavior that you describe, is the normal behavior of Matplotlib: When you call show(), the program gets stuck. Therefore the call to show is always the last statement in the example programs. Show returns when the last plot window is closed, and in principle the program could then continue. If you want to look at plots while the program is running, you must use Ipython. This is a modified Python interpreter, that contains special code to change the way how Matplotlib works. http://ipython.scipy.org/moin/ Eike. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
