+        "\n\n# Plotting dates and strings\n\nThe most basic way to use Matplotlib plotting methods is to pass coordinates in\nas numerical numpy arrays.  For example, ``plot(x, y)`` will work if ``x`` and\n``y`` are numpy arrays of floats (or integers).  Plotting methods will also\nwork if `numpy.asarray` will convert ``x`` and ``y`` to an array of floating\npoint numbers; e.g. ``x`` could be a python list.\n\nMatplotlib also has the ability to convert other data types if a \"unit\nconverter\" exists for the data type.  Matplotlib has two built-in converters,\none for dates and the other for lists of strings.  Other downstream libraries\nhave their own converters to handle their data types.\n\nThe method to add converters to Matplotlib is described in `matplotlib.units`.\nHere we briefly overview the built-in date and string converters.\n\n## Date conversion\n\nIf ``x`` and/or ``y`` are a list of `datetime` or an array of\n`numpy.datetime64`, Matplotlib has a built-in converter that will convert the\ndatetime to a float, and add tick locators and formatters to the axis that are\nappropriate for dates.  See `matplotlib.dates`.\n\nIn the following example, the x-axis gains a converter that converts from\n`numpy.datetime64` to float, and a locator that put ticks at the beginning of\nthe month, and a formatter that label the ticks appropriately:\n"

+Draw a stepwise constant function as a line or a filled plot.

+:math:`(x_i, x_{i+1})`. For plotting :math:`y` at :math:`x`, see
