A popular question is how to get live-updating graphs in Python and Matplotlib. Luckily for us, the creator of Matplotlib has even created something to help us do just that. This is the matplotlib.animation function. This video and the subsequent video shows you the animation function, how it works, and gives an example.

This video teaches you the basics of using Matplotlib's animation functionality in order to generate live updating charts and graphs within python. We will be later using this in conjunction with our stock charting tutorial series to make those stock price charts live updating.
