Bug summary
As of matplotlib v3.9, it appears that matplotlib.cm.get_cmap() is missing. It is still available on matplotlib.pyplot.get_cmap(), though.
matplotlib.cm.get_cmap() is still shown in the documentation and I would be surprised if this change was made without some kind of deprecation warning.
Code for reproduction
In [1]: from matplotlib import pyplot, cm
In [2]: pyplot.get_cmap('gray')
Out[2]: <matplotlib.colors.LinearSegmentedColormap at 0x7f6b2c7303d0>
In [3]: cm.get_cmap('gray')
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
AttributeError Traceback (most recent call last)
Cell In[3], line 1
----> 1 cm.get_cmap('gray')
AttributeError: module 'matplotlib.cm' has no attribute 'get_cmap'Actual outcome
AttributeError Traceback (most recent call last)
Cell In[3], line 1
----> 1 cm.get_cmap('gray')
AttributeError: module 'matplotlib.cm' has no attribute 'get_cmap'
Expected outcome
Should return the gray colormap.
Additional information
This works in matplotlib <3.9 and is still shown in the documentation. It is kind of odd that this function is available from two locations, though.
