"""
Plot identical parallel lines at specific positions.
Plot identical parallel lines at the given positions.

Plot parallel lines at the given positions. positions should be a 1D
or 2D array-like object, with each row corresponding to a row or column
of lines.
*positions* should be a 1D or 2D array-like object, with each row
corresponding to a row or column of lines.

This type of plot is commonly used in neuroscience for representing
neural events, where it is commonly called a spike raster, dot raster,
neural events, where it is usually called a spike raster, dot raster,
or raster plot.

However, it is useful in any situation where you wish to show the
timing or position of multiple sets of discrete events, such as the
arrival times of people to a business on each day of the month or the
date of hurricanes each year of the last century.

*orientation* : [ 'horizontal' | 'vertical' ]
'horizontal' : the lines will be vertical and arranged in rows
'vertical' : lines will be horizontal and arranged in columns
Parameters
----------
positions : 1D or 2D array-like object
Each value is an event. If *positions* is a 2D array-like, each
row corresponds to a row or a column of lines (depending on the
*orientation* parameter).

orientation : {'horizontal', 'vertical'}, optional
Controls the direction of the event collections:

*lineoffsets* :
A float or array-like containing floats.
- 'horizontal' : the lines are arranged horizontally in rows,
and are vertical.
- 'vertical' : the lines are arranged vertically in columns,
and are horizontal.

*linelengths* :
A float or array-like containing floats.
lineoffsets : scalar or sequence of scalars, optional, default: 1
The offset of the center of the lines from the origin, in the
direction orthogonal to *orientation*.

*linewidths* :
A float or array-like containing floats.
linelengths : scalar or sequence of scalars, optional, default: 1
The total height of the lines (i.e. the lines stretches from
``lineoffset - linelength/2`` to ``lineoffset + linelength/2``).

*colors*
must be a sequence of RGBA tuples (e.g., arbitrary color
strings, etc, not allowed) or a list of such sequences
linewidths : scalar, scalar sequence or None, optional, default: None
The line width(s) of the event lines, in points. If it is None,
defaults to its rcParams setting.

*linestyles* :
[ 'solid' | 'dashed' | 'dashdot' | 'dotted' ] or an array of these
values
colors : color, sequence of colors or None, optional, default: None
The color(s) of the event lines. If it is None, defaults to its
rcParams setting.

For linelengths, linewidths, colors, and linestyles, if only a single
value is given, that value is applied to all lines. If an array-like
is given, it must have the same length as positions, and each value
will be applied to the corresponding row or column in positions.
linestyles : str or tuple or a sequence of such values, optional
Default is 'solid'. Valid strings are ['solid', 'dashed',
'dashdot', 'dotted', '-', '--', '-.', ':']. Dash tuples
should be of the form::

Returns a list of :class:`matplotlib.collections.EventCollection`
objects that were added.
(offset, onoffseq),

kwargs are :class:`~matplotlib.collections.LineCollection` properties:
where *onoffseq* is an even length tuple of on and off ink
in points.

**kwargs : optional
Other keyword arguments are line collection properties. See
:class:`~matplotlib.collections.LineCollection` for a list of
the valid properties.

Returns
-------

A list of :class:`matplotlib.collections.EventCollection` objects that
were added.

Notes
-----

For *linelengths*, *linewidths*, *colors*, and *linestyles*, if only
a single value is given, that value is applied to all lines. If an
array-like is given, it must have the same length as *positions*, and
each row of the array will be applied to the corresponding row or
column of events.

*pickradius* is the tolerance for mouse clicks picking a line.
The default is 5 pt.
**kwargs : optional
Other keyword arguments are line collection properties. See
:class:`~matplotlib.collections.LineCollection` for a list of
the valid properties.

The use of :class:`~matplotlib.cm.ScalarMappable` is optional.
If the :class:`~matplotlib.cm.ScalarMappable` array
:attr:`~matplotlib.cm.ScalarMappable._A` is not None (i.e., a call to
:meth:`~matplotlib.cm.ScalarMappable.set_array` has been made), at
draw time a call to scalar mappable will be made to set the colors.
