matplotlib and pandas were designed with the idea of mimicking interfaces more popular than the project (when they were first conceived). The "easy" interface is a large part of why those projects are now more popular then their inspirations.
- 0thgen 6y agovery true; I found matplotlib very appealing because I didn't have to relearn anything coming from matlab
