Tick Control and Formatting
Advanced tick locator and formatter system with support for scientific notation, fractions, geographic coordinates, and custom number formatting patterns. Proplot provides enhanced tick control with specialized formatters and locators for scientific and geographic applications.

"""Usage Examples
import proplot as pplt
# Scientific notation
fig, ax = pplt.subplots()
ax.format(yformatter='sci', yformatter_kw={'precision': 2})
# Geographic coordinates
fig, ax = pplt.subplots(proj='platecarree')
ax.format(
lonformatter='deglon', # Longitude with E/W
latformatter='deglat', # Latitude with N/S
lonlocator=pplt.Locator('deglon', dms=False),
latlocator=pplt.Locator('deglat', dms=False)
)
# Fraction formatting
ax.format(xformatter='frac', xformatter_kw={'symbol': 'π'})Install with Tessl CLI
