"""
The rcsetup module contains the validation code for customization using
Matplotlib's rc settings.

Each rc setting is assigned a function used to validate any attempted changes
to that setting.  The validation functions are defined in the rcsetup module,
and are used to construct the rcParams global object which stores the settings
and is referenced throughout Matplotlib.

The default values of the rc settings are set in the default matplotlibrc file.
Any additions or deletions to the parameter set listed here should also be
propagated to the :file:`lib/matplotlib/mpl-data/matplotlibrc` in Matplotlib's
root source directory.

def cycler(*args, **kwargs):
    """
    Create a `~cycler.Cycler` object much like :func:`cycler.cycler`,
    but includes input validation.

    Call signatures::

      cycler(cycler)
      cycler(label=values[, label2=values2[, ...]])
      cycler(label, values)

    Form 1 copies a given `~cycler.Cycler` object.

    Form 2 creates a `~cycler.Cycler` which cycles over one or more
    properties simultaneously. If multiple properties are given, their
    value lists must have the same length.

    Form 3 creates a `~cycler.Cycler` for a single property. This form
    exists for compatibility with the original cycler. Its use is
    discouraged in favor of the kwarg form, i.e. ``cycler(label=values)``.

    Parameters
    ----------
    cycler : Cycler
        Copy constructor for Cycler.

    label : str
        The property key. Must be a valid `.Artist` property.
        For example, 'color' or 'linestyle'. Aliases are allowed,
        such as 'c' for 'color' and 'lw' for 'linewidth'.

    values : iterable
        Finite-length iterable of the property values. These values
        are validated and will raise a ValueError if invalid.

    Returns
    -------
    Cycler
        A new :class:`~cycler.Cycler` for the given properties.

    Examples
    --------
    Creating a cycler for a single property:

    >>> c = cycler(color=['red', 'green', 'blue'])

    Creating a cycler for simultaneously cycling over multiple properties
    (e.g. red circle, green plus, blue cross):

    >>> c = cycler(color=['red', 'green', 'blue'],
    ...            marker=['o', '+', 'x'])
