Secondary Axis
==============

Sometimes we want a secondary axis on a plot, for instance to convert
radians to degrees on the same plot.  We can do this by making a child
axes with only one axis visible via `.axes.Axes.secondary_xaxis` and
`.axes.Axes.secondary_yaxis`.  This secondary axis can have a different scale
than the main axis by providing both a forward and an inverse conversion
function in a tuple to the *functions* keyword argument:
