Matplotlib update one plot function when multiple functions plotted on same figure

I have a case where I plot multiple functions on one figure but want to update one function while not having to re-plot the other function.

A very simplistic example:

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
   
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
x = np.arange(0,10,0.1)

ax1 = plt.subplot(1,1,1)
ax2 = plt.subplot(1,1,1)

ax1.plot(x,1*np.sin(x),'b-')
ax2.plot(x,2*np.sin(x),'g-')

enter image description here

I want to clear/update the data plotted in ax2 so that the data in ax1 isn't cleared or needs to be replotted.

Using ax2.clear() or ax2.cla() both clear the entire figure.

Are there any suggestions on how I can either update just the data in ax2 or a better way to control the plotting data for multiple functions on the same plot independently?

The actual case scenario plots satellite data (ax1) on a projected map with contour lines (ax2) overlayed. So the motivation is not to replot the satellite data due to time, but to keep the satellite data and update the contour plots (ax2) and save the figure at each step in a for-loop.

Confusion between commands.Bot and discord.Client | Which one should I use?

Whenever you look at YouTube tutorials or code from this website there is a real variation. Some developers use client = discord.Client(intents=intents) while the others use bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="something", intents=intents) . Now I know slightly about the difference but I get errors from different places from my code when I use either of them and its confusing. Especially since there has a few changes over the years in discord.py it is hard to find the real difference. I tried sticking to discord.Client then I found that there are more features in commands.Bot . Then I found errors when using commands.Bot . An example of this is: When I try to use commands.Bot client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">",intents=intents) async def load(): for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"): if filename.endswith(".py"): client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}") The above doesnt giveany response from my Cogs ...
