How to plot multiple functions on the same figure, in Matplotlib?

To plot multiple graphs on the same figure you will have to do:

from numpy import *
import math
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

t = linspace(0, 2*math.pi, 400)
a = sin(t)
b = cos(t)
c = a + b

plt.plot(t, a, 'r') # plotting t, a separately 
plt.plot(t, b, 'b') # plotting t, b separately 
plt.plot(t, c, 'g') # plotting t, c separately 
plt.show()

Perhaps a more pythonic way of doing so.

from numpy import *
import math
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

t = linspace(0,2*math.pi,400)
a = sin(t)
b = cos(t)
c = a + b

plt.plot(t, a, t, b, t, c)
plt.show()

Just use the function plot as follows

figure()
...
plot(t, a)
plot(t, b)
plot(t, c)
