[cloudhan]

Help on function vlines in module matplotlib.pyplot:

vlines(x, ymin, ymax, colors='k', linestyles='solid', label='', hold=None, **kwargs)
Plot vertical lines.

Plot vertical lines at each x from ymin to ymax.

Parameters

x : scalar or 1D array_like
x-indexes where to plot the lines.

xmin, xmax : scalar or 1D array_like
Respective beginning and end of each line. If scalars are
provided, all lines will have same length.

[cloudhan]

the xmin and xmax should be ymin and ymax

@heliumhgy Could you put together a pull request to fix the typos?

@tacaswell
Sorry, seems this typo has been fixed in master branch and 1.3.x branch.
I get this from /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/axis.py

    def vlines(self, x, ymin, ymax, colors='k', linestyles='solid',
                     label='', **kwargs):
        """
        Plot vertical lines.

        Plot vertical lines at each `x` from `ymin` to `ymax`.

        Parameters
        ----------
        x : scalar or 1D array_like
            x-indexes where to plot the lines.

        xmin, xmax : scalar or 1D array_like
            Respective beginning and end of each line. If scalars are
            provided, all lines will have same length.

        colors : array_like of colors, optional, default: 'k'

while in repo, the line:

        xmin, xmax : scalar or 1D array_like

has been replace by

        ymin, ymax : scalar or 1D array_like

Closing this as already fixed.
