## Installation
Install `nc-time-axis` either with `conda`:
```shell
conda install -c conda-forge nc-time-axis
```
Or `pip`:
```shell
pip install nc-time-axis
```
## Example
```python
import random
import cftime
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import nc_time_axis
calendar = "360_day"
dt = [
cftime.datetime(year=2017, month=2, day=day, calendar=calendar)
for day in range(1, 31)
]
temperatures = [round(random.uniform(0, 12), 3) for _ in range(len(dt))]
plt.plot(dt, temperatures)
plt.margins(0.1)
plt.ylim(0, 12)
plt.xlabel("Date")
plt.ylabel("Temperature")
plt.show()
```
