MatPlotLib Pt.1
just wanted to try out something artistic in matplotlib. some more play time with numpy is always nice. here we go…
perlin noise with matplotlib color arrays
some voronoi_points in a numpy array
a bar chart on a polar axis.
I stole the code from some example, but I never thought about wrapping a bar chart x-axis around a point like that. Interesting result…
using fonts on a plot

Plotly vs Matplotlib
plotly has a js lib for interactive diagrams. not sure if matplotlib has something similar, but I haven’t seen it.

Pandas with mpl or cufflinks or plotly?
cufflinks might not be really needed anymore. pandas supports multiple graphing backends like mpl or with plotly which now supports
