<p>Users of Path objects should not access the vertices and codes
arrays directly. Instead, they should use <a class="reference internal" href="#matplotlib.path.Path.iter_segments" title="matplotlib.path.Path.iter_segments"><tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">iter_segments()</span></tt></a>
to get the vertex/code pairs. This is important, since many
<a class="reference internal" href="#matplotlib.path.Path" title="matplotlib.path.Path"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Path</span></tt></a> objects, as an optimization, do not store a <em>codes</em>
at all, but have a default one provided for them by
<a class="reference internal" href="#matplotlib.path.Path.iter_segments" title="matplotlib.path.Path.iter_segments"><tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">iter_segments()</span></tt></a>.</p>
<div class="admonition note">
<p class="first admonition-title">Note</p>
<p class="last">The vertices and codes arrays should be treated as
immutable – there are a number of optimizations and assumptions
made up front in the constructor that will not change when the

</div>
<p>Create a new path with the given vertices and codes.</p>
<p><em>vertices</em> is an Nx2 numpy float array, masked array or Python
sequence.</p>
<p><em>codes</em> is an N-length numpy array or Python sequence of type
<a class="reference internal" href="#matplotlib.path.Path.code_type" title="matplotlib.path.Path.code_type"><tt class="xref py py-attr docutils literal"><span class="pre">matplotlib.path.Path.code_type</span></tt></a>.</p>
<p>These two arrays must have the same length in the first
dimension.</p>
<p>If <em>codes</em> is None, <em>vertices</em> will be treated as a series of
line segments.</p>
<p>If <em>vertices</em> contains masked values, they will be converted
to NaNs which are then handled correctly by the Agg
PathIterator and other consumers of path data, such as
<a class="reference internal" href="#matplotlib.path.Path.iter_segments" title="matplotlib.path.Path.iter_segments"><tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">iter_segments()</span></tt></a>.</p>
<p><em>interpolation_steps</em> is used as a hint to certain projections,
such as Polar, that this path should be linearly interpolated
immediately before drawing. This attribute is primarily an
implementation detail and is not intended for public use.</p>
