title: Set tick labels in matplotlib
body: <p>I'm trying to make some manipulations with tick labels in matplotlib. But it seems that code does not do what I want, and I have no idea why? There is no labels.</p>
  
  <pre><code>In[1]: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
         import numpy as np
  
  In[2]: x = np.arange(0,10)
  
  In[3]: plt.plot(x,x)
  
         locs, labs = plt.xticks()
         plt.xticks(locs[1:], labs[1:])
  
         plt.show()
  </code></pre>
