In [12]: plotille.Figure?
Init signature: plotille.Figure()
Docstring:
Figure class to compose multiple plots.

Within a Figure you can easily compose many plots, assign labels to plots
and define the properties of the underlying Canvas. Possible properties that
can be defined are:

    width, height: int    Define the number of characters in X / Y direction
                          which are used for plotting.
    x_limits: float       Define the X limits of the reference coordinate system,
                          that will be plottered.
    y_limits: float       Define the Y limits of the reference coordinate system,
                          that will be plottered.
    color_mode: str       Define the used color mode. See `plotille.color()`.
    with_colors: bool     Define, whether to use colors at all.
    background: multiple  Define the background color.
    x_label, y_label: str Define the X / Y axis label.

Docstring:
A canvas object for plotting braille dots

A Canvas object has a `width` x `height` characters large canvas, in which it
can plot indivitual braille point, lines out of braille points, rectangles,...
Since a full braille character has 2 x 4 dots (⣿), the canvas has `width` * 2, `height` * 4
dots to plot into in total.

It maintains two coordinate systems: a reference system with the limits (xmin, ymin)
in the lower left corner to (xmax, ymax) in the upper right corner is transformed
into the canvas discrete, i.e. dots, coordinate system (0, 0) to (`width` * 2, `height` * 4).
It does so transparently to clients of the Canvas, i.e. all plotting functions
only accept coordinates in the reference system. If the coordinates are outside
the reference system, they are not plotted.
Init docstring:
Initiate a Canvas object

Parameters:
    width: int            The number of characters for the width (columns) of the canvas.
    hight: int            The number of characters for the hight (rows) of the canvas.

    xmax, ymax: float     Upper right corner of reference system.

Docstring:
Print an image using braille dots into the canvas.

The pixels and braille dots in the canvas are a 1-to-1 mapping, hence
a 80 x 80 pixel image will need a 40 x 20 canvas.

Example:
    from PIL import Image
    import plotille as plt

    img = Image.open("/path/to/image")
    img = img.convert('L')
    img = img.resize((80, 80))

Print an image using background colors into the canvas.

The pixels of the image and the characters in the canvas are a
1-to-1 mapping, hence a 80 x 80 image will need a 80 x 80 canvas.

Example:
    from PIL import Image
    import plotille as plt

    img = Image.open("/path/to/image")
    img = img.convert('RGB')
    img = img.resize((40, 40))
