Classes for the efficient drawing of large collections of objects that
share most properties, e.g. a large number of line segments or
polygons.

The classes are not meant to be as flexible as their single element
counterparts (e.g. you may not be able to select all line styles) but
they are meant to be fast for common use cases (e.g. a large set of solid
line segemnts)

    """
    Class for the efficient drawing of a quadrilateral mesh.

    A quadrilateral mesh consists of a grid of vertices. The
    dimensions of this array are (*meshWidth* + 1, *meshHeight* +
    1). Each vertex in the mesh has a different set of "mesh
    coordinates" representing its position in the topology of the
    mesh. For any values (*m*, *n*) such that 0 <= *m* <= *meshWidth*
    and 0 <= *n* <= *meshHeight*, the vertices at mesh coordinates
    (*m*, *n*), (*m*, *n* + 1), (*m* + 1, *n* + 1), and (*m* + 1, *n*)
    form one of the quadrilaterals in the mesh. There are thus
    (*meshWidth* * *meshHeight*) quadrilaterals in the mesh.  The mesh
    need not be regular and the polygons need not be convex.

    A quadrilateral mesh is represented by a (2 x ((*meshWidth* + 1) *
    (*meshHeight* + 1))) numpy array *coordinates*, where each row is
    the *x* and *y* coordinates of one of the vertices.  To define the
    function that maps from a data point to its corresponding color,
    use the :meth:`set_cmap` method.  Each of these arrays is indexed in
    row-major order by the mesh coordinates of the vertex (or the mesh
    coordinates of the lower left vertex, in the case of the
    colors).

    For example, the first entry in *coordinates* is the
    coordinates of the vertex at mesh coordinates (0, 0), then the one
    at (0, 1), then at (0, 2) .. (0, meshWidth), (1, 0), (1, 1), and
    so on.
