        Call signatures::

            add_axes(rect, projection=None, polar=False, **kwargs)
            add_axes(ax)

        Parameters
        ----------

        rect : sequence of float
            The dimensions [left, bottom, width, height] of the new axes. All
            quantities are in fractions of figure width and height.

        projection : {None, 'aitoff', 'hammer', 'lambert', 'mollweide', \
'polar', 'rectilinear', str}, optional
            The projection type of the `~.axes.Axes`. *str* is the name of
            a custom projection, see `~matplotlib.projections`. The default
            None results in a 'rectilinear' projection.

        polar : boolean, optional
            If True, equivalent to projection='polar'.

        sharex, sharey : `~.axes.Axes`, optional
            Share the x or y `~matplotlib.axis` with sharex and/or sharey.
            The axis will have the same limits, ticks, and scale as the axis
            of the shared axes.

        label : str
            A label for the returned axes.

        Other Parameters
        ----------------
        **kwargs
            This method also takes the keyword arguments for
            the returned axes class. The keyword arguments for the
            rectilinear axes class `~.axes.Axes` can be found in
            the following table but there might also be other keyword
            arguments if another projection is used, see the actual axes
            class.
            %(Axes)s

        Returns
        -------
        axes : `~.axes.Axes` (or a subclass of `~.axes.Axes`)
            The returned axes class depends on the projection used. It is
            `~.axes.Axes` if rectilinear projection are used and
            `.projections.polar.PolarAxes` if polar projection
            are used.

        Notes
        -----
        If the figure already has an axes with key (*args*,
        *kwargs*) then it will simply make that axes current and
        return it.  This behavior is deprecated. Meanwhile, if you do
        not want this behavior (i.e., you want to force the creation of a
        new axes), you must use a unique set of args and kwargs.  The axes
        *label* attribute has been exposed for this purpose: if you want
        two axes that are otherwise identical to be added to the figure,
        make sure you give them unique labels.

        In rare circumstances, `.add_axes` may be called with a single
        argument, a axes instance already created in the present figure but
        not in the figure's list of axes.

           add_subplot(pos, **kwargs)
           add_subplot(ax)

        Parameters
        ----------
        *args
            Either a 3-digit integer or three separate integers
            describing the position of the subplot. If the three
            integers are *nrows*, *ncols*, and *index* in order, the
            subplot will take the *index* position on a grid with *nrows*
            rows and *ncols* columns. *index* starts at 1 in the upper left
            corner and increases to the right.

            *pos* is a three digit integer, where the first digit is the
            number of rows, the second the number of columns, and the third
            the index of the subplot. i.e. fig.add_subplot(235) is the same as
            fig.add_subplot(2, 3, 5). Note that all integers must be less than
            10 for this form to work.

        projection : {None, 'aitoff', 'hammer', 'lambert', 'mollweide', \
'polar', 'rectilinear', str}, optional
            The projection type of the subplot (`~.axes.Axes`). *str* is the
            name of a custom projection, see `~matplotlib.projections`. The
            default None results in a 'rectilinear' projection.

        polar : boolean, optional
            If True, equivalent to projection='polar'.

        sharex, sharey : `~.axes.Axes`, optional
            Share the x or y `~matplotlib.axis` with sharex and/or sharey.
            The axis will have the same limits, ticks, and scale as the axis
            of the shared axes.

        label : str
            A label for the returned axes.

        Other Parameters
        ----------------
        **kwargs
            This method also takes the keyword arguments for
            the returned axes base class. The keyword arguments for the
            rectilinear base class `~.axes.Axes` can be found in

            arguments if another projection is used.
            %(Axes)s

        Returns
        -------
        axes : an `.axes.SubplotBase` subclass of `~.axes.Axes` (or a \
               subclass of `~.axes.Axes`)

            The axes of the subplot. The returned axes base class depends on
            the projection used. It is `~.axes.Axes` if rectilinear projection
            are used and `.projections.polar.PolarAxes` if polar projection
            are used. The returned axes is then a subplot subclass of the
            base class.

        Notes
        -----
        If the figure already has a subplot with key (*args*,
        *kwargs*) then it will simply make that subplot current and
        return it.  This behavior is deprecated. Meanwhile, if you do

        Parameters
        ----------
        nrows, ncols : int, optional, default: 1
            Number of rows/columns of the subplot grid.

        sharex, sharey : bool or {'none', 'all', 'row', 'col'}, default: False
            Controls sharing of properties among x (`sharex`) or y (`sharey`)
            axes:

                - True or 'all': x- or y-axis will be shared among all
                  subplots.
                - False or 'none': each subplot x- or y-axis will be
                  independent.
                - 'row': each subplot row will share an x- or y-axis.
                - 'col': each subplot column will share an x- or y-axis.

            When subplots have a shared x-axis along a column, only the x tick
            labels of the bottom subplot are created. Similarly, when subplots
            have a shared y-axis along a row, only the y tick labels of the
            first column subplot are created. To later turn other subplots'
            ticklabels on, use `~matplotlib.axes.Axes.tick_params`.

        squeeze : bool, optional, default: True
            - If True, extra dimensions are squeezed out from the returned
              array of Axes:

                - if only one subplot is constructed (nrows=ncols=1), the
                  resulting single Axes object is returned as a scalar.
                - for Nx1 or 1xM subplots, the returned object is a 1D numpy
                  object array of Axes objects.
                - for NxM, subplots with N>1 and M>1 are returned
                  as a 2D array.

            - If False, no squeezing at all is done: the returned Axes object
              is always a 2D array containing Axes instances, even if it ends
              up being 1x1.

        subplot_kw : dict, optional
            Dict with keywords passed to the
            :meth:`~matplotlib.figure.Figure.add_subplot` call used to create
            each subplot.

        gridspec_kw : dict, optional
            Dict with keywords passed to the
            `~matplotlib.gridspec.GridSpec` constructor used to create
            the grid the subplots are placed on.

        Returns
        -------
        ax : `~.axes.Axes` object or array of Axes objects.
            *ax* can be either a single `~matplotlib.axes.Axes` object or
            an array of Axes objects if more than one subplot was created. The
            dimensions of the resulting array can be controlled with the
            squeeze keyword, see above.

            The resolution in dots per inch.  If *None*, defaults to
            :rc:`savefig.dpi`.  If 'figure', uses the figure's dpi value.

        quality : [ *None* | 1 <= scalar <= 100 ]
            The image quality, on a scale from 1 (worst) to 95 (best).
            Applicable only if *format* is jpg or jpeg, ignored otherwise.
            If *None*, defaults to :rc:`savefig.jpeg_quality` (95 by default).
            Values above 95 should be avoided; 100 completely disables the
            JPEG quantization stage.

        facecolor : color spec or None, optional
            The facecolor of the figure; if *None*, defaults to
            :rc:`savefig.facecolor`.

        edgecolor : color spec or None, optional
            The edgecolor of the figure; if *None*, defaults to
            :rc:`savefig.edgecolor`

        orientation : {'landscape', 'portrait'}
            Currently only supported by the postscript backend.

        papertype : str
            One of 'letter', 'legal', 'executive', 'ledger', 'a0' through
            'a10', 'b0' through 'b10'. Only supported for postscript
            output.

        format : str
            One of the file extensions supported by the active
            backend.  Most backends support png, pdf, ps, eps and svg.

        transparent : bool
            If *True*, the axes patches will all be transparent; the
            figure patch will also be transparent unless facecolor
            and/or edgecolor are specified via kwargs.
            This is useful, for example, for displaying
            a plot on top of a colored background on a web page.  The
            transparency of these patches will be restored to their
            original values upon exit of this function.

        frameon : bool
            If *True*, the figure patch will be colored, if *False*, the
            figure background will be transparent.  If not provided, the
            rcParam 'savefig.frameon' will be used.

        bbox_inches : str or `~matplotlib.transforms.Bbox`, optional
            Bbox in inches. Only the given portion of the figure is
            saved. If 'tight', try to figure out the tight bbox of
            the figure. If None, use savefig.bbox

        pad_inches : scalar, optional
            Amount of padding around the figure when bbox_inches is
            'tight'. If None, use savefig.pad_inches

        bbox_extra_artists : list of `~matplotlib.artist.Artist`, optional
            A list of extra artists that will be considered when the
            tight bbox is calculated.

        metadata : dict, optional
            Key/value pairs to store in the image metadata. The supported keys
            and defaults depend on the image format and backend:

            - 'png' with Agg backend: See the parameter ``metadata`` of
              `~.FigureCanvasAgg.print_png`.
            - 'pdf' with pdf backend: See the parameter ``metadata`` of
              `~.backend_pdf.PdfPages`.
            - 'eps' and 'ps' with PS backend: Only 'Creator' is supported.

        Alignment persists for draw events after this is called.

        If a label is on the left, it is aligned with labels on axes that
        also have their label on the left and that have the same
        left-most subplot column.  If the label is on the right,
        it is aligned with labels on axes with the same right-most column.

        axs : list of `~matplotlib.axes.Axes`
            Optional list (or ndarray) of `~matplotlib.axes.Axes`

        their `.SubplotSpec` positions correspond to figure positions.

        Parameters
        ----------
        nrows : int
            Number of rows in grid.

        ncols : int
            Number or columns in grid.

def figaspect(arg):
    """
    Calculate the width and height for a figure with a specified aspect ratio.

    While the height is taken from :rc:`figure.figsize`, the width is
    adjusted to match the desired aspect ratio. Additionally, it is ensured
    that the width is in the range [4., 16.] and the height is in the range
    [2., 16.]. If necessary, the default height is adjusted to ensure this.

    Parameters
    ----------
    arg : scalar or 2d array
        If a scalar, this defines the aspect ratio (i.e. the ratio height /
        width).
        In case of an array the aspect ratio is number of rows / number of
        columns, so that the array could be fitted in the figure undistorted.

    Returns
    -------
    width, height
        The figure size in inches.

    Notes
    -----
    If you want to create an axes within the figure, that still preserves the
    aspect ratio, be sure to create it with equal width and height. See
    examples below.

    Thanks to Fernando Perez for this function.

    Examples
    --------
    Make a figure twice as tall as it is wide::

        w, h = figaspect(2.)

        ax = fig.add_axes([0.1, 0.1, 0.8, 0.8])
        ax.imshow(A, **kwargs)

    Make a figure with the proper aspect for an array::

        A = rand(5,3)
        w, h = figaspect(A)
        fig = Figure(figsize=(w, h))
        ax = fig.add_axes([0.1, 0.1, 0.8, 0.8])
