Matplotlib

[davidmascharka]

This adds a section on matplotlib covering everything listed in #15:

• fig/ax
• Plotting in notebook mode
• Basic plotting, color, linestyle, labels, titles
• Error-bar plots, fill_between
• Multiple plots in a figure, multiple plots on an axis
• Plotting images
• Saving figures

Scoping and organization may need some work @rsokl

The file is too large for me to make changes/view diffs on GitHub, so I took a look at the changes locally. This looks way better! Here are a couple small modifications (no line numbers because they probably wouldn't help anyway):

• Matplotlib section, first paragraph: natively uses two- and three-dimensional <-- add a hyphen to "two"

• Same section and paragraph: "This section will instroduce the basics of plotting and key..."

• Same: "Consult the matplotlib users guide

• Matplotlib section, last paragraph: you writh mathplotlib <- change to matplotlib

• Plotting in Jupyter Notebooks section: "interact with the plots the render within" should be "interact with the plots that render within"

• Creating Figures and Axes with pyplot.subplots section, first paragraph: "figsize can be used to control the size of the figure, which the keyword arguments..." should be "figsize can be used to control the size of the figure, while the keyword arguments..."

• Axes object section where you lay out all the different plots: "The matrice's entries" should be "matrix entries" or "matrix's entrys" since it's a single matrix, not multiple matrices.

Additional note: You might clean up the file by getting rid of the [<matplotlib.lines>] objects that print, just so it looks neater.

Awesome! Thanks for looking at this. Still working on it. Writing about matplotlib is so boring

@davidmascharka I think this is good to go! We're on a roll! Would you mind taking a look?

I'm so sad my cool color-gradient image is gone 😢

I think this all looks good. Is imread going in somewhere else? I noticed it got taken out.

[rsokl]

haha I'm so sorry. The color gradient example was just way to intellectually demanding for the purpose it was serving :P

Ah I totally didn't mean to get rid of imread !
