* Rectified plot error The plot shown on the page: https://matplotlib.org/tutorials/introductory/usage.html#sphx-glr-tutorials-introductory-usage-py Will be possible only if plt.show() is outside the loop * Added corrections in docs as per requirements * Commented the code block to remove plot rendering * Added :: * corrected trailing spaces and bad indentation * Removed E402
