i am trying to use a graph and chart app called matplotlib, but i cannot figgure out how to have it plot a simple chart over time.
the docs say to use the function plot_date() but i cannot seem to get the values to agree.
I am sending datetimes to the charting app for x, and the y is a list of values that the our equipment reports.
sometimes there are lots of reports in a row, and i would like the chart to show it like that instead of plotting out every time as an evenly spaced tick on the x scale. Does this make any sense, what i am after here? Anyway, if any of you have much experience with this sort of thing, or may suggest a package (pylab is my first attempt) please send me some advice.
thanks for your time,
sk
