除了适用于Python的matplotlib之外，还有其他图形模块吗？

Question

I feel matplotlib is slow, and want to try other light-weight, agile graphic package.I mainly use plotting for business presentation, not scientific purpose. Any recommendation ?

Answer 1

You could try:

http://code.google.com/p/visvis/
http://code.google.com/p/cagraph/

or plplot's python binding ...

If you feel like you don't necessarily need to implement your code in Python, you could try Latex based plotting:

http://pgfplots.sourceforge.net/gallery.html

Answer 2

There is also Chaco. It is not lightweight by any means but it is a fair bit faster than matplotlib in my limited tests.

I ended up staying with matplotlib however as it is more popular, so it has better community support for help with questions and such.
