""" ========================== Creating adjacent subplots ========================== To create plots that share a common axis (visually) you can set the hspace between the subplots to zero. Passing sharex=True when creating the subplots will automatically turn off all x ticks and labels except those on the bottom axis. In this example the plots share a common x axis but you can follow the same logic to supply a common y axis.
