Emulate matlab's axes command, creating axes with
Axes(position=[left, bottom, width, height])
where all the arguments are fractions in [0,1] which specify the
fraction of the total figure window.
axisbg is the color of the axis background

Methods defined here:
- __init__(self, fig, position, axisbg='w')
- add_line(self, line)
- Add a line to the list of plot lines
- add_patch(self, patch)
- Add a line to the list of plot lines
- add_table(self, tab)
- Add a table instance to the list of axes tables
- bar(self, left, height, width=0.80000000000000004, bottom=0, color='b', yerr=None, xerr=None, capsize=3)
- BAR(left, height)

left, left+width, 0, height
left and height are Numeric arrays
Return value is a list of Rectangle patch instances
BAR(left, height, width, bottom,
color, yerr, xerr, capsize, yoff)
xerr and yerr, if not None, will be used to generate errorbars
on the bar chart
color specifies the color of the bar
capsize determines the length in points of the error bar caps
The optional arguments color, width and bottom can be either
scalars or len(x) sequences
This enables you to use bar as the basis for stacked bar
charts, or candlestick plots
- cla(self)
- Clear the current axes
- clear(self)
- cohere(self, x, y, NFFT=256, Fs=2, detrend=<function detrend_none>, window=<function window_hanning>, noverlap=0)
- cohere the coherence between x and y. Coherence is the normalized
cross spectral density
Cxy = |Pxy|^2/(Pxx*Pyy)
The return value is (Cxy, f), where f are the frequencies of the
coherence vector. See the docs for psd and csd for information
about the function arguments NFFT, detrend, windowm noverlap, as
well as the methods used to compute Pxy, Pxx and Pyy.

- csd(self, x, y, NFFT=256, Fs=2, detrend=<function detrend_none>, window=<function window_hanning>, noverlap=0)
- The cross spectral density Pxy by Welches average periodogram
method. The vectors x and y are divided into NFFT length
segments. Each segment is detrended by function detrend and
windowed by function window. noverlap gives the length of the
overlap between segments. The product of the direct FFTs of x and
y are averaged over each segment to compute Pxy, with a scaling to
correct for power loss due to windowing. Fs is the sampling
frequency.
NFFT must be a power of 2
detrend and window are functions, unlike in matlab where they are
vectors. For detrending you can use detrend_none, detrend_mean,
detrend_linear or a custom function. For windowing, you can use
window_none, window_hanning, or a custom function
Returns the tuple Pxy, freqs. Pxy is the cross spectrum (complex
valued), and 10*log10(|Pxy|) is plotted

- in_axes(self, xwin, ywin)
- legend(self, *args, **kwargs)
- Place a legend on the current axes at location loc. Labels are a
sequence of strings and loc can be a string or an integer
specifying the legend location
USAGE:
Make a legend with existing lines
legend( LABELS )
>>> legend( ('label1', 'label2', 'label3') )
Make a legend for Line2D instances lines1, line2, line3
legend( LINES, LABELS )
>>> legend( (line1, line2, line3), ('label1', 'label2', 'label3') )
Make a legend at LOC
legend( LABELS, LOC ) or
legend( LINES, LABELS, LOC )
>>> legend( ('label1', 'label2', 'label3'), loc='upper left')
>>> legend( (line1, line2, line3),
('label1', 'label2', 'label3'),
loc=2)
The LOC location codes are
The location codes are
'best' : 0, (currently not supported, defaults to upper right)
'upper right' : 1, (default)
'upper left' : 2,
'lower left' : 3,
'lower right' : 4,
'right' : 5,
'center left' : 6,
'center right' : 7,
'lower center' : 8,
'upper center' : 9,
'center' : 10,
- loglog(self, *args, **kwargs)
- Make a loglog plot with log scaling on the a and y axis. The args
to semilog x are the same as the args to plot. See help plot for
more info
- panx(self, numsteps)
- Pan the x axis numsteps (plus pan right, minus pan left)
- pany(self, numsteps)
- Pan the x axis numsteps (plus pan up, minus pan down)
- pcolor(self, *args, **kwargs)

Shading:
The optional keyword arg shading ('flat' or 'faceted') will
determine whether a black grid is drawn around each pcolor
square. Default 'faceteted'
e.g.,
pcolor(C, shading='flat')
pcolor(X, Y, C, shading='faceted')
returns a list of patch objects
Note, the behavior of meshgrid in matlab is a bit
counterintuitive for x and y arrays. For example,
x = arange(7)
y = arange(5)
X, Y = meshgrid(x,y)
Z = rand( len(x), len(y))
pcolor(X, Y, Z)
will fail in matlab and matplotlib. You will probably be
happy with
pcolor(X, Y, transpose(Z))
Likewise, for nonsquare Z,
pcolor(transpose(Z))
will make the x and y axes in the plot agree with the numrows
and numcols of Z
- plot(self, *args)
- Emulate matlab's plot command. *args is a variable length
argument, allowing for multiple x,y pairs with an optional
format string. For example, all of the following are legal,
assuming a is the Axis instance:
a.plot(x,y) # plot Numeric arrays y vs x
a.plot(x,y, 'bo') # plot Numeric arrays y vs x with blue circles
a.plot(y) # plot y using x = arange(len(y))
a.plot(y, 'r+') # ditto with red plusses
An arbitrary number of x, y, fmt groups can be specified, as in
a.plot(x1, y1, 'g^', x2, y2, 'l-')
Returns a list of lines that were added
- psd(self, x, NFFT=256, Fs=2, detrend=<function detrend_none>, window=<function window_hanning>, noverlap=0)
- The power spectral density by Welches average periodogram method.
The vector x is divided into NFFT length segments. Each segment
is detrended by function detrend and windowed by function window.
noperlap gives the length of the overlap between segments. The
absolute(fft(segment))**2 of each segment are averaged to compute Pxx,
with a scaling to correct for power loss due to windowing. Fs is
the sampling frequency.
-- NFFT must be a power of 2
-- detrend and window are functions, unlike in matlab where they
are vectors. For detrending you can use detrend_none,
detrend_mean, detrend_linear or a custom function. For
windowing, you can use window_none, window_hanning, or a custom
function
-- if length x < NFFT, it will be zero padded to NFFT
Returns the tuple Pxx, freqs
For plotting, the power is plotted as 10*log10(pxx)) for decibels,
though pxx itself is returned

Defaults override is
override = {
'fontsize' : 10,
'verticalalignment' : 'center',
'horizontalalignment' : 'right',
'rotation'='vertical' : }
See the text doctstring for information of how override and
the optional args work
- set_ylim(self, v)
- Set the limits for the xaxis; v = [ymin, ymax]
- set_yscale(self, value)
- set_yticklabels(self, labels, fontdict=None, **kwargs)
- Set the ytick labels with list of strings labels.
Return a list of Text instances
- set_yticks(self, ticks)

- table(self, cellText=None, cellColours=None, cellLoc='right', colWidths=None, rowLabels=None, rowColours=None, rowLoc='left', colLabels=None, colColours=None, colLoc='center', loc='bottom', bbox=None)
- Create a table and add it to the axes. Returns a table
instance. For finer grained control over tables, use the
Table class and add it to the axes with add_table.
Thanks to John Gill for providing the class and table.
- text(self, x, y, text, fontdict=None, **kwargs)
- Add text to axis at location x,y (data coords)
fontdict is a dictionary to override the default text properties.
If fontdict is None, the default is
If len(args) the override dictionary will be:
'fontsize' : 10,
'verticalalignment' : 'bottom',
'horizontalalignment' : 'left'
**kwargs can in turn be used to override the override, as in
a.text(x,y,label, fontsize=12)
will have verticalalignment=bottom and
horizontalalignment=left but will have a fontsize of 12
The Text defaults are
'color' : 'k',
'fontname' : 'Sans',
'fontsize' : 10,
'fontweight' : 'bold',
'fontangle' : 'normal',
'horizontalalignment' : 'left'
'rotation' : 'horizontal',
'verticalalignment' : 'bottom',
'transx' : self.xaxis.transData,
'transy' : self.yaxis.transData,
transx and transy specify that text is in data coords,
alternatively, you can specify text in axis coords (0,0 lower
left and 1,1 upper right). The example below places text in
the center of the axes
ax = subplot(111)
text(0.5, 0.5,'matplotlib',
horizontalalignment='center',
verticalalignment='center',
transx = ax.xaxis.transAxis,
transy = ax.yaxis.transAxis,
)
- update_viewlim(self)
- Update the view limits with all the data in self
- vlines(self, x, ymin, ymax, color='k')
- Plot vertical lines at each x from ymin to ymax. ymin or ymax
can be scalars or len(x) numpy arrays. If they are scalars,
then the respective values are constant, else the heights of
the lines are determined by ymin and ymax
Returns a list of lines that were added
- zoomx(self, numsteps)
- Zoom in on the x xaxis numsteps (plus for zoom in, minus for zoom out)
- zoomy(self, numsteps)
- Zoom in on the x xaxis numsteps (plus for zoom in, minus for zoom out)
