### About

The [matplotlib](https://matplotlib.org/) Animation Extension

### Install & Import

```sh

pip install gif

```

```python

import gif

```

### Quickstart

```python

import gif

from random import randint

from matplotlib import pyplot as plt

x = [randint(0, 100) for _ in range(100)]

y = [randint(0, 100) for _ in range(100)]

# (Optional) Set the dots per inch resolution to 300

gif.options.matplotlib["dpi"] = 300

# Decorate a plot function with @gif.frame

@gif.frame

def plot(i):

    xi = x[i*10:(i+1)*10]

    yi = y[i*10:(i+1)*10]

    plt.scatter(xi, yi)

    plt.xlim((0, 100))

    plt.ylim((0, 100))

# Construct "frames"

frames = [plot(i) for i in range(10)]

# Save "frames" to gif with a specified duration (milliseconds) between each frame

gif.save(frames, 'example.gif', duration=50)

```
