## Matplotlib integration
The python interpreter can display matplotlib graph with the function `z.show()`.
You need to have matplotlib module installed and a XServer running to use this functionality!
The python interpreter can display matplotlib figures inline automatically using the `pyplot` module:
```python
%python
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.plot([1, 2, 3])
```
This is the recommended method for using matplotlib from within a Zeppelin notebook. More details can be found in the included "Zeppelin Tutorial: Python - matplotlib basic" tutorial notebook. If Zeppelin cannot find the matplotlib backend files (which should usually be found in `$ZEPPELIN_HOME/lib/python`) in your `PYTHONPATH`, then the backend will automatically be set to agg, and the (otherwise deprecated) instructions below can be used for more limited inline plotting.
If you are unable to load the inline backend, use `z.show(plt)`:
```python
%python
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
