Matplotlib in Python

This lesson will introduce users to basic plotting in python as well as basic graphs with research quality figures. There is also a script that allows users to quickly modify a figure for different publications. For more advanced users, there is a script that creates a particle trajectory movie from matplotlib and ffmpeg.

• hwk2-1.py is basic plotting
• hwk2-2.py and hwk3.1.py are for reproducible figures using root finding in python
• example.py and hwk3.2.py are for making movies
