Hi,
using an empty mathtext "$$" in labels generates an exception. See example and traceback below.

ValueError:

Expected end of text (at char 0), (line:1, col:1)
My guess is that this is a LaTeX error. If you enter $$ in a normal LaTeX document, you will get:
pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode -file-line-error-style exited with status 1
This error comes from the fact that double dollar signs ($$) are used to wrap display equations (single dollar signs are used to wrap inline equations). If you were to instead write “ ” (or “$$ $$”), you shouldn’t get an error.

I don't think so. I'm using mathtext i.e. matplotlibs own latex interpreter. And I get the same error with $$ $$.

I see that this isn't a LaTeX error, but I think Tony's comment is still somewhat valid. Since mathtext's parser is a direct subset of LaTeX's, and since $$ is a syntax error in LaTeX, it also is in mathtext. (This is really a side effect of make such a direct copy of the parser, rather than a deliberate choice). We can probably add a workaround to the parser, but I personally don't have a problem with it raising an exception. It doesn't seem to be a very useful thing to be able to do. What's your use case?
Cheers,
Mike

Hi,
Some more thoughts about hist():
A "range" parameter should be added and used in histogram()
A new histogram should get a new colour, just like plot() does
The "step" type should default to fill=False
Actually, personally I hardly ever use bar histograms at all, so if step-mode (unfilled) was made default I wouldn't complain...
And not directly related to hist():
I think the pan/zoom tool should be on by default when a new figure opens. As it is now, we always need to press some button no matter what we want to do. pan/zoom is a good guess (at least for me)!
Thanks all developers for creating what has become my default plotting tool! I will never leave the python shell again.

Hi Olle,
what do you mean by "range" parameter. What should this parameter actually do ?
I just committed a patch to the trunk that adds the features as you and also Erik Tollerud proposed (expect for the range thing).

Actually just pass it along to numpy.histogram(). I guess it just ignores all data outside the range.
Cheers,
Olle
Maybe the best solution here is to simply add a "histogramkwargs"
argument that gets passed into nump.histogram - that way, the user can
also do things like have a weighted histogram if they so desire
(probably want to make sure no one passes in {'new':False}, though, as
that would screw everything up).
