Bug summary
type-checking failing when using something like this:
plt.scatter(x_coords, y_coords, c=[0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6], cmap='jet_r', alpha=0.6)
saying that c has incompatible types:
error: Argument "c" to "scatter" has incompatible type "list[float]"; expected "Sequence[tuple[float, float, float] | str | str | tuple[float, float, float, float] | tuple[tuple[float, float, float] | str, float] | tuple[tuple[float, float, float, float], float]] | tuple[float, float, float] | str | str | tuple[float, float, float, float] | tuple[tuple[float, float, float] | str, float] | tuple[tuple[float, float, float, float], float] | None"
However, this actually IS allowed by underlying code for plotting since c will sample from the cmap function.
I suspect this will happen in any plotting function that allows this behavior.
Code for reproduction
plt.scatter([1,2,3,4,5], [1,2,3,4,5], c=[0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6], cmap='jet_r', alpha=0.6)
Actual outcome
mypy raises error:
error: Argument "c" to "scatter" has incompatible type "list[float]"; expected "Sequence[tuple[float, float, float] | str | str | tuple[float, float, float, float] | tuple[tuple[float, float, float] | str, float] | tuple[tuple[float, float, float, float], float]] | tuple[float, float, float] | str | str | tuple[float, float, float, float] | tuple[tuple[float, float, float] | str, float] | tuple[tuple[float, float, float, float], float] | None"
Expected outcome
mypy should not raise error
