Matplotlib

Matplotlib is a comprehensive library for creating static, animated, and interactive visualizations in Python. Matplotlib makes easy things easy and hard things possible. Matplotlib ships with several add-on toolkits, including 3D plotting with mplot3d, axes helpers in axes_grid1 and axis helpers in axisartist. A large number of third party packages extend and build on Matplotlib functionality, including several higher-level plotting interfaces (seaborn, HoloViews, ggplot, ...), and a projection and mapping toolkit (Cartopy). Matplotlib is the brainchild of John Hunter (1968-2012), who, along with its many contributors, have put an immeasurable amount of time and effort into producing a piece of software utilized by thousands of scientists worldwide. Matplotlib is a Sponsored Project of NumFOCUS, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit charity in the United States. Matplotlib has support for visualizing information with a wide array of colors and colormaps.
