==================
Parasite Axes demo
==================

Create a parasite axes. Such axes would share the x scale with a host axes,
but show a different scale in y direction.

This approach uses `mpl_toolkits.axes_grid1.parasite_axes.HostAxes` and
`mpl_toolkits.axes_grid1.parasite_axes.ParasiteAxes`.

An alternative approach using standard Matplotlib subplots is shown in the
:doc:`/gallery/ticks_and_spines/multiple_yaxis_with_spines` example.

An alternative approach using :mod:`mpl_toolkits.axes_grid1`
and :mod:`mpl_toolkits.axisartist` is found in the
:doc:`/gallery/axisartist/demo_parasite_axes2` example.
