""" ========================== The default tick formatter ========================== By default, tick labels are formatted using a `.ScalarFormatter`, which can be configured via `~.axes.Axes.ticklabel_format`. This example illustrates some possible configurations: - Default. - ``useMathText=True``: Fancy formatting of mathematical expressions. - ``useOffset=False``: Do not use offset notation; see `.ScalarFormatter.set_useOffset`.
