"""
==============================================
Mapping marker properties to multivariate data
==============================================

This example shows how to use different properties of markers to plot
multivariate datasets. Here we represent a successful baseball throw as a
smiley face with marker size mapped to the skill of thrower, marker rotation to
the take-off angle, and thrust to the marker color.
