Hi, this is not a big deal, but I think that there is a bug while
saving eps figures and passing the linewidth='2.5' as string instead
of float. The following reproduces the error I get here:
plt.plot([1,2,3], 'k', linewidth='2.5')
plt.savefig('teste.png') # Saves OK
# The following fails with linewidth='2.5', but passes with linewidth=2.5
# TypeError: float argument required, not str
plt.savefig('teste.eps')
plt.show() # show is OK for both cases.
matplotlib.__version__
Out[2]: '1.2.x'

That's not a bug. linewidth is required to be a float, rather than a string. Python's typing is generally a little stricter than languages such as JavaScript.

I think the bigger question is why does it work with show()? I would expect it to fail. I would rather have it fail everywhere or work everywhere.

Yep, that's what I was expecting. It should fail with both show() and
the save as 'png' format. However, it only fails when trying to save
an 'eps'

I think the bigger question is why does it _work_ with show()? I would
expect it to fail. I would rather have it fail everywhere or work
everywhere.
