By default, Matplotlib auto-scales axes to fit data tightly. Using `plt.xlim()` and `plt.ylim()` lets you zoom in, start axes at zero, or enforce standardized comparison frames.
Adjusting the zoom and pan knobs of a camera frame, and turning on the camera's viewfinder grid overlay.
`plt.xlim(min, max)` sets the visible horizontal domain. `plt.ylim(min, max)` sets the vertical range.
plt.xlim(0, 100)
plt.ylim(0, 50)`plt.grid(True, which='both', linestyle=':', color='gray', alpha=0.5)`.
plt.grid(True, linestyle='--', alpha=0.4)Avoid the top errors and bad plotting practices that trip up new Python developers

Write Matplotlib code to solve the objective and see your live plot render
Plot `x=[1, 2, 3]` and `y=[4, 5, 6]`, and set xlim to `(0, 5)` and ylim to `(0, 10)`.
