Create a subplot at a specific location inside a regular grid.

Parameters:
shape(int, int)

Number of rows and of columns of the grid in which to place axis.

loc(int, int)

Row number and column number of the axis location within the grid.

rowspanint, default: 1

Notes

The following call

ax=subplot2grid((nrows,ncols),(row,col),rowspan,colspan)

is identical to

fig=gcf()gs=fig.add_gridspec(nrows,ncols)ax=fig.add_subplot(gs[row:row+rowspan,col:col+colspan])
