title: Python "'module' object is not callable"
body: <p>I'm trying to make a plot:</p>
  
  <pre><code>from matplotlib import *
  import sys
  from pylab import *
  
  f = figure ( figsize =(7,7) )
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But I get this error when I try to execute it:</p>
  
  <pre><code>  File "mratio.py", line 24, in &lt;module&gt;
      f = figure( figsize=(7,7) )
  TypeError: 'module' object is not callable
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have run a similar script before, and I think I've imported all the relevant modules. </p>
