[Matplotlib-users] dynamically add subplots to figure

[Tom V. <to...@so...>]

Is it possible to add subplots to a figure if I don't know in advance
how many subplots I need to add?

What I do now is I call add_subplot like add_subplot(i, 1, i) where i
is 1 initially, and just increases by 1 on each call. This almost
works. Except the first plot takes up the whole figure, the second
plot is placed on top of the bottom half of the first plot, etc. Is
there a way to "resize" the plots when a subplot is added? Or how
would I "re-plot" the previous subplots?

Thanks.
