Pcolor Demo
===========

Generating images with :meth:`~.axes.Axes.pcolor`.

Pcolor allows you to generate 2-D image-style plots. Below we will show how
to do so in Matplotlib.

# A simple pcolor demo

# Comparing pcolor with similar functions
# ---------------------------------------
#
# Demonstrates similarities between :meth:`~.axes.Axes.pcolor`,
# :meth:`~.axes.Axes.pcolormesh`, :meth:`~.axes.Axes.imshow` and
# :meth:`~.axes.Axes.pcolorfast` for drawing quadrilateral grids.

# make these smaller to increase the resolution
dx, dy = 0.15, 0.05

# generate 2 2d grids for the x & y bounds

z = (1 - x / 2. + x ** 5 + y ** 3) * np.exp(-x ** 2 - y ** 2)
# x and y are bounds, so z should be the value *inside* those bounds.
# Therefore, remove the last value from the z array.
z = z[:-1, :-1]

# Pcolor with a log scale
# -----------------------
#
# The following shows pcolor plots with a log scale.

N = 100
X, Y = np.mgrid[-3:3:complex(0, N), -2:2:complex(0, N)]

# A low hump with a spike coming out.
# Needs to have z/colour axis on a log scale so we see both hump and spike.
# linear scale only shows the spike.
