<SYSTEM_TASK:>
Given the following text description, write Python code to implement the functionality described below step by step

Description:
 Advanced Matplotlib Concepts Lecture
Logarithmic scale
It is also possible to set a logarithmic scale for one or both axes. This functionality is in fact only one application of a more general transformation system in Matplotlib. Each of the axes' scales are set seperately using set_xscale and set_yscale methods which accept one parameter (with the value "log" in this case)
Step1:  Placement of ticks and custom tick labels
We can explicitly determine where we want the axis ticks with set_xticks and set_yticks, which both take a list of values for where on the axis the ticks are to be placed. We can also use the set_xticklabels and set_yticklabels methods to provide a list of custom text labels for each tick location
Step2:  There are a number of more advanced methods for controlling major and minor tick placement in matplotlib figures, such as automatic placement according to different policies. See http
Step3:  Axis number and axis label spacing
Step4:  Axis position adjustments
Unfortunately, when saving figures the labels are sometimes clipped, and it can be necessary to adjust the positions of axes a little bit. This can be done using subplots_adjust
Step5:  Axis grid
With the grid method in the axis object, we can turn on and off grid lines. We can also customize the appearance of the grid lines using the same keyword arguments as the plot function
Step6:  Axis spines
We can also change the properties of axis spines
Step7:  Twin axes
Sometimes it is useful to have dual x or y axes in a figure; for example, when plotting curves with different units together. Matplotlib supports this with the twinx and twiny functions
Step8:  Axes where x and y is zero
Step9:  Other 2D plot styles
In addition to the regular plot method, there are a number of other functions for generating different kind of plots. See the matplotlib plot gallery for a complete list of available plot types
Step10:  Text annotation
Annotating text in matplotlib figures can be done using the text function. It supports LaTeX formatting just like axis label texts and titles
Step11:  Figures with multiple subplots and insets
Axes can be added to a matplotlib Figure canvas manually using fig.add_axes or using a sub-figure layout manager such as subplots, subplot2grid, or gridspec
Step12:  subplot2grid
Step13:  gridspec
Step14:  add_axes
Manually adding axes with add_axes is useful for adding insets to figures
Step15:  Colormap and contour figures
Colormaps and contour figures are useful for plotting functions of two variables. In most of these functions we will use a colormap to encode one dimension of the data. There are a number of predefined colormaps. It is relatively straightforward to define custom colormaps. For a list of pre-defined colormaps, see
Step16:  pcolor
Step17:  imshow
Step18:  contour
Step19:  3D figures
To use 3D graphics in matplotlib, we first need to create an instance of the Axes3D class. 3D axes can be added to a matplotlib figure canvas in exactly the same way as 2D axes; or, more conveniently, by passing a projection='3d' keyword argument to the add_axes or add_subplot methods.
Step20:  Surface plots
Step21:  Wire-frame plot
Step22:  Coutour plots with projections
<ASSISTANT_TASK:>
Python Code:
fig, axes = plt.subplots(1, 2, figsize=(10,4))
      
axes[0].plot(x, x**2, x, np.exp(x))
axes[0].set_title("Normal scale")
axes[1].plot(x, x**2, x, np.exp(x))
axes[1].set_yscale("log")
axes[1].set_title("Logarithmic scale (y)");

End of explanation
fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(10, 4))
ax.plot(x, x**2, x, x**3, lw=2)
ax.set_xticks([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
ax.set_xticklabels([r'$\alpha$', r'$\beta$', r'$\gamma$', r'$\delta$', r'$\epsilon$'], fontsize=18)
yticks = [0, 50, 100, 150]
ax.set_yticks(yticks)
ax.set_yticklabels(["$%.1f$" % y for y in yticks], fontsize=18); # use LaTeX formatted labels
Explanation: Placement of ticks and custom tick labels
We can explicitly determine where we want the axis ticks with set_xticks and set_yticks, which both take a list of values for where on the axis the ticks are to be placed. We can also use the set_xticklabels and set_yticklabels methods to provide a list of custom text labels for each tick location:

ax.plot(x, x**2, x, np.exp(x))
ax.set_title("scientific notation")
ax.set_yticks([0, 50, 100, 150])
from matplotlib import ticker
formatter = ticker.ScalarFormatter(useMathText=True)
formatter.set_scientific(True) 
formatter.set_powerlimits((-1,1)) 
ax.yaxis.set_major_formatter(formatter) 
Explanation: There are a number of more advanced methods for controlling major and minor tick placement in matplotlib figures, such as automatic placement according to different policies. See http://matplotlib.org/api/ticker_api.html for details.
Scientific notation
With large numbers on axes, it is often better use scientific notation:
End of explanation
# distance between x and y axis and the numbers on the axes
matplotlib.rcParams['xtick.major.pad'] = 5
matplotlib.rcParams['ytick.major.pad'] = 5
fig, ax = plt.subplots(1, 1)
      
ax.plot(x, x**2, x, np.exp(x))
ax.set_yticks([0, 50, 100, 150])
ax.set_title("label and axis spacing")
# padding between axis label and axis numbers
ax.xaxis.labelpad = 5
ax.yaxis.labelpad = 5
ax.set_xlabel("x")
ax.set_ylabel("y");
# restore defaults
matplotlib.rcParams['xtick.major.pad'] = 3
matplotlib.rcParams['ytick.major.pad'] = 3
Explanation: Axis number and axis label spacing

ax.set_title("title")
ax.set_xlabel("x")
ax.set_ylabel("y")
fig.subplots_adjust(left=0.15, right=.9, bottom=0.1, top=0.9);
Explanation: Axis position adjustments
Unfortunately, when saving figures the labels are sometimes clipped, and it can be necessary to adjust the positions of axes a little bit. This can be done using subplots_adjust:
End of explanation
fig, axes = plt.subplots(1, 2, figsize=(10,3))
# default grid appearance
axes[0].plot(x, x**2, x, x**3, lw=2)
axes[0].grid(True)
# custom grid appearance
axes[1].plot(x, x**2, x, x**3, lw=2)
axes[1].grid(color='b', alpha=0.5, linestyle='dashed', linewidth=0.5)
Explanation: Axis grid
With the grid method in the axis object, we can turn on and off grid lines. We can also customize the appearance of the grid lines using the same keyword arguments as the plot function:
End of explanation
fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(6,2))
ax.spines['bottom'].set_color('blue')
ax.spines['top'].set_color('blue')
ax.spines['left'].set_color('red')
ax.spines['left'].set_linewidth(2)
# turn off axis spine to the right
ax.spines['right'].set_color("none")
ax.yaxis.tick_left() # only ticks on the left side
Explanation: Axis spines
We can also change the properties of axis spines:
End of explanation
fig, ax1 = plt.subplots()
ax1.plot(x, x**2, lw=2, color="blue")
ax1.set_ylabel(r"area $(m^2)$", fontsize=18, color="blue")
for label in ax1.get_yticklabels():
    label.set_color("blue")
    
ax2 = ax1.twinx()
ax2.plot(x, x**3, lw=2, color="red")
ax2.set_ylabel(r"volume $(m^3)$", fontsize=18, color="red")
for label in ax2.get_yticklabels():
    label.set_color("red")
Explanation: Twin axes
Sometimes it is useful to have dual x or y axes in a figure; for example, when plotting curves with different units together. Matplotlib supports this with the twinx and twiny functions:
End of explanation
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.spines['right'].set_color('none')
ax.spines['top'].set_color('none')
ax.xaxis.set_ticks_position('bottom')
ax.spines['bottom'].set_position(('data',0)) # set position of x spine to x=0
ax.yaxis.set_ticks_position('left')
ax.spines['left'].set_position(('data',0))   # set position of y spine to y=0
xx = np.linspace(-0.75, 1., 100)
ax.plot(xx, xx**3);

End of explanation
n = np.array([0,1,2,3,4,5])
fig, axes = plt.subplots(1, 4, figsize=(12,3))
axes[0].scatter(xx, xx + 0.25*np.random.randn(len(xx)))
axes[0].set_title("scatter")
axes[1].step(n, n**2, lw=2)
axes[1].set_title("step")
axes[2].bar(n, n**2, align="center", width=0.5, alpha=0.5)
axes[2].set_title("bar")
axes[3].fill_between(x, x**2, x**3, color="green", alpha=0.5);
axes[3].set_title("fill_between");
Explanation: Other 2D plot styles
In addition to the regular plot method, there are a number of other functions for generating different kind of plots. See the matplotlib plot gallery for a complete list of available plot types: http://matplotlib.org/gallery.html. Some of the more useful ones are show below:
