Metallicity Distribution Function

Plots a metallicity distribution function to the best of matplotlib’s abilities. Unfortunately, the “normed” keyword is buggy and does not return a PDF. The “density” keyword should, but it not yet supported in many versions of numpy.

Usage:

>>> import pynbody.plot as pp
>>> pp.mdf(s,linestyle='dashed',color='k')
