13 #2. 怎样设置极坐标的方向
14 plt.subplots_adjust(wspace=0.3)#控制两个subplot的间距，否则会有部分标签重叠
15 ax1 = plt.subplot(121, polar=True)
16 ax2 = plt.subplot(122, polar=True)
17 #print(dir(ax))
18 theta = np.arange(0, 2*np.pi, 0.1)
19 ax1.set_theta_direction(-1)
20 ax2.set_theta_direction(\'anticlockwise\')
21 ax1.plot(theta, theta/6,\'o--\')
22 ax2.plot(theta, theta/6,\'o--\')
23 plt.savefig(\'theta_direction.jpg\')
24 plt.show()

ax1 是顺时针方向的图

ax2 是逆时针方向的图

set_theta_direction(direction)

Set the direction in which theta increases.

clockwise, -1:
　　Theta increases in the clockwise direction
counterclockwise, anticlockwise, 1:
　　Theta increases in the counterclockwise direction

如果direction的值为1，表示逆时针方向，即默认theta增长方向；

如果direction的值为-1，表示顺时针方向。

同时direction也支持 \' clockwise\'，\'counterclockwise\' ，\'anticlockwise\'
