Hi,
I'm trying to use Matplotlib in python. I can import the package Matplotlib using;
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
and it imports the package without error.
I can also run the following without erro;
plt.figure()
however, when I try to plot something using plt.plot() I get the following error;
I am not sure why i'm getting this error. I would appreciate any help in resolving it.
Thank you
