"""
`matplotlib.pyplot` is a state-based interface to matplotlib. It provides
an implicit, MATLAB-like, way of plotting. It also opens figures on your
screen, and acts as the figure GUI manager.
pyplot is mainly intended for interactive plots and simple cases of
programmatic plot generation::
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
x = np.arange(0, 5, 0.1)
y = np.sin(x)
plt.plot(x, y)
The explicit (object-oriented) API is recommended for complex plots, though
pyplot is still usually used to create the figure and often the axes in the
figure. See `.pyplot.figure`, `.pyplot.subplots`, and
`.pyplot.subplot_mosaic` to create figures, and
:doc:`Axes API <../axes_api>` for the plotting methods on an axes::
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
x = np.arange(0, 5, 0.1)
y = np.sin(x)
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.plot(x, y)

Parameters
----------
block : bool, optional
Whether to wait for all figures to be closed before returning.
If `True` block and run the GUI main loop until all figure windows
are closed.
If `False` ensure that all figure windows are displayed and return
immediately. In this case, you are responsible for ensuring
that the event loop is running to have responsive figures.
Defaults to True in non-interactive mode and to False in interactive
mode (see `.pyplot.isinteractive`).
See Also
--------
ion : Enable interactive mode, which shows / updates the figure after
every plotting command, so that calling ``show()`` is not necessary.
ioff : Disable interactive mode.
savefig : Save the figure to an image file instead of showing it on screen.
Notes
-----
**Saving figures to file and showing a window at the same time**
If you want an image file as well as a user interface window, use
`.pyplot.savefig` before `.pyplot.show`. At the end of (a blocking)
``show()`` the figure is closed and thus unregistered from pyplot. Calling
`.pyplot.savefig` afterwards would save a new and thus empty figure. This
limitation of command order does not apply if the show is non-blocking or
if you keep a reference to the figure and use `.Figure.savefig`.
**Auto-show in jupyter notebooks**
The jupyter backends (activated via ``%matplotlib inline``,
``%matplotlib notebook``, or ``%matplotlib widget``), call ``show()`` at
the end of every cell by default. Thus, you usually don't have to call it
explicitly there.

"""
Create a new figure, or activate an existing figure.
Parameters
----------
num : int or str or `.Figure`, optional
A unique identifier for the figure.
If a figure with that identifier already exists, this figure is made
active and returned. An integer refers to the ``Figure.number``
attribute, a string refers to the figure label.
If there is no figure with the identifier or *num* is not given, a new
figure is created, made active and returned. If *num* is an int, it
will be used for the ``Figure.number`` attribute, otherwise, an
auto-generated integer value is used (starting at 1 and incremented
for each new figure). If *num* is a string, the figure label and the
window title is set to this value.
figsize : (float, float), default: :rc:`figure.figsize`
Width, height in inches.
dpi : float, default: :rc:`figure.dpi`
The resolution of the figure in dots-per-inch.
facecolor : color, default: :rc:`figure.facecolor`
The background color.
edgecolor : color, default: :rc:`figure.edgecolor`
The border color.
frameon : bool, default: True
If False, suppress drawing the figure frame.
FigureClass : subclass of `~matplotlib.figure.Figure`
Optionally use a custom `.Figure` instance.
clear : bool, default: False
If True and the figure already exists, then it is cleared.
tight_layout : bool or dict, default: :rc:`figure.autolayout`
If ``False`` use *subplotpars*. If ``True`` adjust subplot
parameters using `.tight_layout` with default padding.
When providing a dict containing the keys ``pad``, ``w_pad``,
``h_pad``, and ``rect``, the default `.tight_layout` paddings
will be overridden.
constrained_layout : bool, default: :rc:`figure.constrained_layout.use`
If ``True`` use constrained layout to adjust positioning of plot
elements. Like ``tight_layout``, but designed to be more
flexible. See
:doc:`/tutorials/intermediate/constrainedlayout_guide`
for examples. (Note: does not work with `add_subplot` or
`~.pyplot.subplot2grid`.)
**kwargs : optional
See `~.matplotlib.figure.Figure` for other possible arguments.
Returns
-------
`~matplotlib.figure.Figure`
The `.Figure` instance returned will also be passed to
new_figure_manager in the backends, which allows to hook custom
`.Figure` classes into the pyplot interface. Additional kwargs will be
passed to the `.Figure` init function.
Notes
-----
If you are creating many figures, make sure you explicitly call
`.pyplot.close` on the figures you are not using, because this will
enable pyplot to properly clean up the memory.
`~matplotlib.rcParams` defines the default values, which can be modified
in the matplotlibrc file.
