# ----------
#
# Create a Cartesian figure using ``projection`` parameter and set the axis
# scales using ``region`` (in this case, each axis is 0-10). Pass a list of
# ``x`` and ``y`` values to be plotted as a line.

    region=[0, 10, 0, 10],
    projection="X15c/10c",

    y=[5, 9],
    pen="1p,black",

# Additional line segments can be added by including additional values for
# ``x`` and ``y``.

# do not need to be repeated in subsequent uses.

# Change line attributes
# ----------------------
#
# The line attributes can be set by the ``pen`` parameter. ``pen`` takes a
# string argument with the optional values *width*,\ *color*,\ *style*.
#
# In the example below, the pen width is set to ``5p``, and with ``black`` as
# the default color and ``solid`` as the default style.

    pen="5p",

# The line color can be set and is added after the line width to the ``pen``
# parameter. In the example below, the line color is set to ``red``.

# The line style can be set and is added after the line width or color to the
# ``pen`` parameter.  In the example below, the line style is set to
# ``..-`` (*dot dot dash*), and the default color ``black`` is used.
