"""valley2.py
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Plots a function of two variables to minimize. The function is a
fairly generic valley function.
Note that this is a duplicate of valley.py, but omits labels on the
axis. It's bad practice to duplicate in this way, but I had
considerable trouble getting matplotlib to update a graph in the way I
needed (adding or removing labels), so finally fell back on this as a
kludge solution.
