+There are a variety of ways to use Matplotlib, and most of them are
illustrated in the examples in this directory.
-Probably the most common way people use matplotlib is with the
-procedural interface, which follows the matlab/IDL/mathematica
-approach of using simple procedures like "plot" or "title" to modify
-the current figure. These examples are included in the "pylab_examples"
-directory. If you want to write more robust scripts, e.g., for
-production use or in a web application server, you will probably want
-to use the matplotlib API for full control. These examples are found
-in the "api" directory. Below is a brief description of the different
-directories found here:
