+==========================================
+Set default x-axis tick labels on the top
+==========================================
+
+We can use :rc:`xtick.labeltop` (default False) and :rc:`xtick.top`
+(default False) and :rc:`xtick.labelbottom` (default True) and
+:rc:`xtick.bottom` (default True) to control where on the axes ticks and
+their labels appear.
+These properties can also be set in the ``.matplotlib/matplotlibrc``.
