Re: [Matplotlib-users] clipping feature?

[matthew a. <ma...@ca...>]

I suggest to John a while back that for plotting it makes more sense for 
data ranges to be inclusive 

[] or min <= x <= max

rather than half-inclusive 

[) or min <= x < max

as is the python default for functions like range().

Specifically, what about making the default behaviour to clip the data at
the first point which is equal or greater than the axis range? That should
maintain the efficiency gains of clipping, while still keeping the
scientific plotting behaviour that I think most users are accustomed to.

Cheers,
Matthew.
