Hey guys, I need a bit of help seeing as I'm new to Python. I'm using Matplotlib, and I'm trying to make it so whenever you click new in the menubar (Tkinter), it resets all the graphs. The program starts out with some random data that's already inputted, so if you look at the new() function it's supposed to clear all the data and redraw the graphs as blanks. The code isn't returning any errors, but it's not working either, so if anyone could help that would be great.
Also, anyone want to help optimizing my code?
