Hi!

I am a new user to python. I want to draw a 2D graph with
coordinates data as input. In the graph i want to fill some area and
also include image maps.
Can any one suggest which is the best library to use and some links for
examples.

Thanks in advance. Your help will be most appreciated.

For such a simple task, I would use MATLAB.

However, if you have to do generic programming in addition to this, I
would use Python with the libraries ImageMagick or Python Image Library
(PIL). Just search for them and you'll have all the examples you need.

Matlab is indeed a market leader, but proprietary. For
situations in which *that* is an issue, Octave and Yorick
are leading open-source alternatives.
