[Matplotlib-users] Need assistance with inconsistent matplotlib plots from computer to computer...

[Thomas Caswell]

Can you try plotting as

plt.plot(waferScan_fullScan_time_lst, waferScan, '-o', label="Laser
Readings", color='k')

which will put a marker at each point to get a better sense of what the
datapoints are and what parts are the interpretation is.
