<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 578379 by <a href="/recipes/users/4184598/">PG</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/map/">map</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/matplotlib/">matplotlib</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/plotting/">plotting</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/projections/">projections</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/stereographic/">stereographic</a>). Revision 3. </p> <p>When plotting maps with either 'npstere' or 'spstere' projections with the Basemap toolkit for Matplotlib, the pole will always be placed in the center of the figure. With this function you can zoom the map to the area of interest by giving the latitude/longitudes coordinates of the bounds.</p>

<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 577431 by <a href="/recipes/users/4175415/">Glenn Hutchings</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/benford/">benford</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/matplotlib/">matplotlib</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/plotting/">plotting</a>). </p> <p>Here's a simple program to demonstrate <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benford%27s_law">Benford's Law</a>, which also shows the simple power of <a href="http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net">matplotlib</a>. It reads from a bunch of files (or stdin, if none specified), extracts the leading digits of all number-like strings found, and plots the distribution in a window together with the expected result if Benford's law applies.</p>
