When presenting signals with fine detail (such as high-frequency pulses or sudden price spikes), an inset magnification axes inside the main plot lets viewers inspect both the macro context and micro detail.
A magnifying glass held over a tiny detail in a large oil painting.
Coordinates are specified in normalized figure fractions from 0.0 (bottom-left) to 1.0 (top-right).
ax_inset = fig.add_axes([0.6, 0.6, 0.25, 0.25])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
Create a figure, plot `[1, 2, 3]` on main axes, and add an inset axes using `fig.add_axes([0.6, 0.6, 0.25, 0.25])` with title 'Zoom'.
