In this Matplotlib tutorial, we're going to be talking about some of the possible customizations to graphs. In order to start modifying the subplots, we have to define them. We will talk about them soon, but there are two major ways to define subplots, and to structure them. For now, we'll just use one of them, but we will be explaining them shortly. sample code: http://pythonprogramming.net http://hkinsley.com https://twitter.com/sentdex http://sentdex.com http://seaofbtc.com
