How can I use GridSpec in Matplotlib?

GridSpec is a powerful tool in Matplotlib that allows you to create complex layouts for your plots. You can define a grid and specify how many rows and columns you want.

Can you show me a simple example of using GridSpec?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.gridspec as gridspec

fig = plt.figure()
gs = gridspec.GridSpec(2, 2)

ax1 = fig.add_subplot(gs[0, 0])  # Top left
ax2 = fig.add_subplot(gs[0, 1])  # Top right
ax3 = fig.add_subplot(gs[1, :])   # Bottom span all columns

ax1.set_title('Plot 1')
ax2.set_title('Plot 2')
ax3.set_title('Plot 3')
plt.show()

What if I want to adjust the spacing between the plots?

You can adjust the spacing using plt.subplots_adjust() or by setting the wspace and hspace parameters in GridSpec. For example:

plt.subplots_adjust(wspace=0.5, hspace=0.5)
