"""
=================================
Rendering math equation using TeX
=================================

You can use TeX to render all of your matplotlib text if the rc
parameter ``text.usetex`` is set.  This works currently on the agg and ps
backends, and requires that you have tex and the other dependencies
described in the :doc:`/tutorials/text/usetex` tutorial
properly installed on your system.  The first time you run a script
you will see a lot of output from tex and associated tools.  The next
time, the run may be silent, as a lot of the information is cached.

Notice how the label for the y axis is provided using unicode!
