SF.net SVN: matplotlib:[6166] trunk/matplotlib/lib/matplotlib/units.py

This isn't quite what I was suggesting (and seems to be equivalent to the code as before). In the common case where there are no units in the data, this will still traverse the entire list.

I think replacing the whole loop with:

  converter = self.get_converter(iter(x).next())

would be even better. (Since lists of data should not be heterogeneous anyway...)

Hmm, I don't see how it would traverse the entire list

            for thisx in x:
                converter = self.get_converter( thisx )
                return converter

since it will return after the first element in the loop. I have no
problem with the iter approach, but am not seeing what the problem is
with this usage.

Sorry. I didn't read carefully enough. That's right -- the "if converter: break" was replaced with "return converter".

You're right. This is fine.
