=============================
Pause and resume an animation
=============================

This example showcases:

- using the Animation.pause() method to pause an animation.
- using the Animation.resume() method to resume an animation.

.. note::
    This example exercises the interactive capabilities of Matplotlib, and this
    will not appear in the static documentation. Please run this code on your
    machine to see the interactivity.
