Matplotlib: ugly graphics using markers

I have a little problem. I have a program that will draw a wave function for potential, and it looks great when I use the option in the plot (using pylab) '-', for example: http://img41.imageshack.us/img41/8798/59138635. png

If I use 'o', I will get: http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/3741/22378006.png

You see that it looks ugly: \

Is there an easy way to make circles more spaced or does it depend on the details of the code?

The code:
