===============
Resampling Data
===============

Downsampling lowers the sample rate or sample size of a signal. In
this tutorial, the signal is downsampled when the plot is adjusted
through dragging and zooming.

.. note::
    This example exercises the interactive capabilities of Matplotlib, and this
    will not appear in the static documentation. Please run this code on your
    machine to see the interactivity.

    You can copy and paste individual parts, or download the entire example
    using the link at the bottom of the page.
