<span class="sd">Demonstrate how to do two plots on the same axes with different left</span>

<span class="sd">right scales.</span>

<span class="sd">The trick is to use *2 different axes*. Turn the axes rectangular</span>

<span class="sd">frame off on the 2nd axes to keep it from obscuring the first.</span>

<span class="sd">Manually set the tick locs and labels as desired. You can use</span>

<span class="sd">separate matplotlib.ticker formatters and locators as desired since</span>

<span class="sd">the two axes are independent.</span>

<span class="sd">This is achieved in the following example by calling the Axes.twinx()</span>

<span class="sd">method, which performs this work. See the source of twinx() in</span>

<span class="sd">axes.py for an example of how to do it for different x scales. (Hint:</span>

<span class="sd">use the xaxis instance and call tick_bottom and tick_top in place of</span>

<span class="sd">tick_left and tick_right.)</span>

<span class="sd">The twinx and twiny methods are also exposed as pyplot functions.</span>
