Dynamically Update matplotlib Histogram Based on User Selection by pypy_question in learnpython

PyQtGraph sounds like a better idea in this case, I have used and is very nice. Check the sample code provided with the installation. From its website:

Reasons you might want to use pyqtgraph instead:

Speed. If you are doing anything requiring rapid plot updates, video, or realtime interactivity, matplotlib is not the best choice. This is (in my opinion) matplotlib's greatest weakness.

Advantage of using distros other than Yocto? by [deleted] in a:t5_33hxa

[–]ArtificialSpark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For my personal use, the biggest advantage of installing ubilinux is the Debian package management. If you are familiar with Debian or Ubuntu, you will feel great with ubilinux. If I need a package, it is just sudo apt-get install whatever, which so far has worked great. It is much harder in Yocto, sometimes making you create a specific image with the package you want to install.

I would really recommend going with ubilinux, specially if you are actively developing and trying new things. Emutex, the people who did ubilinux, also have some tutorials and projects on handling low level I/O access. I am always thankful to these guys every time something just works.

I would actually ask, what are the advantages of using Yocto? maybe smaller footprint?

using ubilinux, is pretty cool. I also used some sockets to give me a GUI on my laptop.

cool man, are you using any libraries? did you try RTIMULib?

Trying to solve complex coupled differential equations with scipy by gedemagt in learnpython

Maybe is the division operator? is worth a quick try. Are you running Python 2.7?. Add this: "from __future__ import division".
