"""
Demo of custom color-cycle settings to control colors for multi-line plots.
This example demonstrates two different APIs:
1. Setting the default rc-parameter specifying the color cycle.
This affects all subsequent plots.
2. Setting the color cycle for a specific axes. This only affects a single
axes.
