=================================
Pausing and Resuming an Animation
=================================

This example showcases:

- using the Animation.pause() method to pause an animation.
- using the Animation.resume() method to resume an animation.

.. 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.

Output generated via `matplotlib.animation.Animation.to_jshtml`.
