Textbox
=======
The Textbox widget lets users interactively provide text input, including
formulas. In this example, the plot is updated using the `.on_submit` method.
This method triggers the execution of the *submit* function when the
user presses enter in the textbox or leaves the textbox.
Note: The `matplotlib.widgets.TextBox` widget is different from the following
static elements: :ref:`annotations` and
:doc:`/gallery/text_labels_and_annotations/placing_text_boxes`.
