<code class="descname">contour_doc</code><em class="property"> = "\n Plot contours.\n\n :func:`~matplotlib.pyplot.contour` and\n :func:`~matplotlib.pyplot.contourf` draw contour lines and\n filled contours, respectively. Except as noted, function\n signatures and return values are the same for both versions.\n\n :func:`~matplotlib.pyplot.contourf` differs from the MATLAB\n version in that it does not draw the polygon edges.\n To draw edges, add line contours with\n calls to :func:`~matplotlib.pyplot.contour`.\n\n\n Call signatures::\n\n contour(Z)\n\n make a contour plot of an array *Z*. The level values are chosen\n automatically.\n\n ::\n\n contour(X,Y,Z)\n\n *X*, *Y* specify the (x, y) coordinates of the surface\n\n ::\n\n contour(Z,N)\n contour(X,Y,Z,N)\n\n contour up to *N* automatically-chosen levels.\n\n ::\n\n contour(Z,V)\n contour(X,Y,Z,V)\n\n draw contour lines at the values specified in sequence *V*,\n which must be in increasing order.\n\n ::\n\n contourf(..., V)\n\n fill the ``len(V)-1`` regions between the values in *V*,\n which must be in increasing order.\n\n ::\n\n contour(Z, **kwargs)\n\n Use keyword args to control colors, linewidth, origin, cmap ... see\n below for more details.\n\n *X* and *Y* must both be 2-D with the same shape as *Z*, or they\n must both be 1-D such that ``len(X)`` is the number of columns in\n *Z* and ``len(Y)`` is the number of rows in *Z*.\n\n ``C = contour(...)`` returns a\n :class:`~matplotlib.contour.QuadContourSet` object.\n\n Optional keyword arguments:\n\n *corner_mask*: [ *True* | *False* | 'legacy' ]\n Enable/disable corner masking, which only has an effect if *Z* is\n a masked array. If *False*, any quad touching a masked point is\n masked out. If *True*, only the triangular corners of quads\n nearest those points are always masked out, other triangular\n corners comprising three unmasked points are contoured as usual.\n If 'legacy', the old contouring algorithm is used, which is\n equivalent to *False* and is deprecated, only remaining whilst the\n new algorithm is tested fully.\n\n If not specified, the default is taken from\n rcParams['contour.corner_mask'], which is True unless it has\n been modified.\n\n *colors*: [ *None* | string | (mpl_colors) ]\n If *None*, the colormap specified by cmap will be used.\n\n If a string, like 'r' or 'red', all levels will be plotted in this\n color.\n\n If a tuple of matplotlib color args (string, float, rgb, etc),\n different levels will be plotted in different colors in the order\n specified.\n\n *alpha*: float\n The alpha blending value\n\n *cmap*: [ *None* | Colormap ]\n A cm :class:`~matplotlib.colors.Colormap` instance or\n *None*. If *cmap* is *None* and *colors* is *None*, a\n default Colormap is used.\n\n *norm*: [ *None* | Normalize ]\n A :class:`matplotlib.colors.Normalize` instance for\n scaling data values to colors. If *norm* is *None* and\n *colors* is *None*, the default linear scaling is used.\n\n *vmin*, *vmax*: [ *None* | scalar ]\n If not *None*, either or both of these values will be\n supplied to the :class:`matplotlib.colors.Normalize`\n instance, overriding the default color scaling based on\n *levels*.\n\n *levels*: [level0, level1, ..., leveln]\n A list of floating point numbers indicating the level\n curves to draw, in increasing order; e.g., to draw just\n the zero contour pass ``levels=[0]``\n\n *origin*: [ *None* | 'upper' | 'lower' | 'image' ]\n If *None*, the first value of *Z* will correspond to the\n lower left corner, location (0,0). If 'image', the rc\n value for ``image.origin`` will be used.\n\n This keyword is not active if *X* and *Y* are specified in\n the call to contour.\n\n *extent*: [ *None* | (x0,x1,y0,y1) ]\n\n If *origin* is not *None*, then *extent* is interpreted as\n in :func:`matplotlib.pyplot.imshow`: it gives the outer\n pixel boundaries. In this case, the position of Z[0,0]\n is the center of the pixel, not a corner. If *origin* is\n *None*, then (*x0*, *y0*) is the position of Z[0,0], and\n (*x1*, *y1*) is the position of Z[-1,-1].\n\n This keyword is not active if *X* and *Y* are specified in\n the call to contour.\n\n *locator*: [ *None* | ticker.Locator subclass ]\n If *locator* is *None*, the default\n :class:`~matplotlib.ticker.MaxNLocator` is used. The\n locator is used to determine the contour levels if they\n are not given explicitly via the *V* argument.\n\n *extend*: [ 'neither' | 'both' | 'min' | 'max' ]\n Unless this is 'neither', contour levels are automatically\n added to one or both ends of the range so that all data\n are included. These added ranges are then mapped to the\n special colormap values which default to the ends of the\n colormap range, but can be set via\n :meth:`matplotlib.colors.Colormap.set_under` and\n :meth:`matplotlib.colors.Colormap.set_over` methods.\n\n *xunits*, *yunits*: [ *None* | registered units ]\n Override axis units by specifying an instance of a\n :class:`matplotlib.units.ConversionInterface`.\n\n *antialiased*: [ *True* | *False* ]\n enable antialiasing, overriding the defaults. For\n filled contours, the default is *True*. For line contours,\n it is taken from rcParams['lines.antialiased'].\n\n *nchunk*: [ 0 | integer ]\n If 0, no subdivision of the domain. Specify a positive integer to\n divide the domain into subdomains of *nchunk* by *nchunk* quads.\n Chunking reduces the maximum length of polygons generated by the\n contouring algorithm which reduces the rendering workload passed\n on to the backend and also requires slightly less RAM. It can\n however introduce rendering artifacts at chunk boundaries depending\n on the backend, the *antialiased* flag and value of *alpha*.\n\n contour-only keyword arguments:\n\n *linewidths*: [ *None* | number | tuple of numbers ]\n If *linewidths* is *None*, the default width in\n ``lines.linewidth`` in ``matplotlibrc`` is used.\n\n If a number, all levels will be plotted with this linewidth.\n\n If a tuple, different levels will be plotted with different\n linewidths in the order specified.\n\n *linestyles*: [ *None* | 'solid' | 'dashed' | 'dashdot' | 'dotted' ]\n If *linestyles* is *None*, the default is 'solid' unless\n the lines are monochrome. In that case, negative\n contours will take their linestyle from the ``matplotlibrc``\n ``contour.negative_linestyle`` setting.\n\n *linestyles* can also be an iterable of the above strings\n specifying a set of linestyles to be used. If this\n iterable is shorter than the number of contour levels\n it will be repeated as necessary.\n\n contourf-only keyword arguments:\n\n *hatches*:\n A list of cross hatch patterns to use on the filled areas.\n If None, no hatching will be added to the contour.\n Hatching is supported in the PostScript, PDF, SVG and Agg\n backends only.\n\n\n Note: contourf fills intervals that are closed at the top; that\n is, for boundaries *z1* and *z2*, the filled region is::\n\n z1 < z <= z2\n\n There is one exception: if the lowest boundary coincides with\n the minimum value of the *z* array, then that minimum value\n will be included in the lowest interval.\n "</em><a class="headerlink" href="#matplotlib.contour.QuadContourSet.contour_doc" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt>
