Producing a color map image using Python

I have a working program in C++ that generates data for a Mandelbrot Set. I am able to get the colo开发者_StackOverflow社区r map image of the Mandelbrot set using gnuplot. In order to save the image, I just take a screenshot which doesn't give a very accurate image.

how I can use a Python script in order to produce and save the image.
