[O] Problem with python session

[Florian Lindner]

Hello,

I have an org file:

* Overview of available basis functions
#+BEGIN_SRC python :session generateBFpics :exports results :results file
  import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
  import numpy as np

  def set_plotoptions():
      plt.xlabel("x")
      plt.ylabel("$\phi(x)$")
      plt.grid()


  np.seterr(invalid='ignore')

  x = np.linspace(-3, 3, 1000)

  plt.plot(x,  np.log(abs(x))*np.power(x, 2))
  plt.suptitle("Thin Plate Splines")
  plt.title("$\phi(|x|) = \log(x) \cdot x^2$")
  set_plotoptions()
  plt.savefig("bf-tps.pdf")
  plt.close()
  "bf-tps.pdf"
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
[[file:bf-tps.pdf]]

#+BEGIN_SRC python :session generateBFpics :exports results :results file
  for shape in [1, 2, 3, 4]:
      plt.plot(x, np.power(shape, 2) + np.power(x,2), label = "s = %i" % shape)
  plt.suptitle("Multi Quadrics")
  plt.title("$\phi(|x|) = s^2 + x^2$")
  plt.legend()
  set_plotoptions()
  plt.savefig("bf-multiquadrics.pdf")
  plt.close()
  "bf-multiquadrics.pdf"
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
[[file:bf-multiquadrics.pdf]]



Both PDFs are generated. But only the first one has the content I expect, the 
othe one is an empty plot (it's a plot,
yes, but empty axes.

When I copy these pieces of code into on .py file it works just great. To my 
understanding that just how session mode works.

What could be the problem here?

Thanks,
Florian
