Is it possible to remove the border?

Question

Hello I have this code using matplotlib :

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.plot([1],[1])
ax.tick_params(axis=u'both', which=u'both', length=0)
plt.show()

But I would like to have this :

I mean I just want to remove the black border.

Thank you very much !

use ax.spines["top"].set_visible(False) to control visibility of boarders

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.plot([1],[1])
ax.tick_params(axis=u'both', which=u'both', length=0)

ax.spines["top"].set_visible(False)
ax.spines["right"].set_visible(False)
ax.spines["bottom"].set_visible(False)
ax.spines["left"].set_visible(False)
plt.show()

output

Is it possible to remove the border?
