"""
================
Axis line styles
================

This example shows some configurations for axis style.

Note: The `mpl_toolkits.axisartist` axes classes may be confusing for new
users. If the only aim is to obtain arrow heads at the ends of the axes,
rather check out the :doc:`/gallery/recipes/centered_spines_with_arrows`
example.

for direction in ["xzero", "yzero"]:

    ax.axis[direction].set_axisline_style("-|>")

    # adds X and Y-axis from the origin
