Subject: Remove pylab.ion() from plot_image.py's main().
X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5f88f013cf4f717184e125c48ad539fba5451706;p=parallel_computing.git

Remove pylab.ion() from plot_image.py's main().

When pylab is in interactive mode, showing the figures does not halt
script exectution.  This means that the script will likely complete
before the user has time to appreciate the figure (unless the are
*really* fast ;)).

Also use figure/axes methods where possible (instead of pylab.axes,
etc.).  It's cleaner that way ;).
