I found this bug when investigating why there's no yticks (except 0) shown when using a symlog scale.\r\n\r\n**Code for reproduction**\r\n\r\n```python\r\nfrom matplotlib import pyplot as plt\r\nimport numpy as np\r\n\r\nf, ax = plt.subplots()\r\nax.plot(np.arange(100))\r\nax.set_yscale('symlog')\r\nprint(ax.get_yaxis_transform())\r\n```\r\n\r\n**Actual outcome**\r\n```\r\nRecursionError: Maximum recursion depth exceeded\r\n```\r\n\r\n**Expected outcome**\r\nAn object of type `matplotlib.scale.SymmetricLogScaleTransform` or something like that.\r\n\r\n**Matplotlib version**\r\n\u003c!--Please specify your platform and versions of the relevant libraries you are using:--\u003e\r\n  * Operating system: Ubuntu 16.04.1\r\n  * Matplotlib version:  2.2.2\r\n  * Matplotlib backend (`print(matplotlib.get_backend())`): Qt5Agg\r\n  * Python version: 3.6.5\r\n\r\nInstallation was done via conda default channel.\r\n\r\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/themightyoarfish","@type":"Person","name":"themightyoarfish"},"datePublished":"2018-05-03T08:12:31.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":2},"url":"https://github.com/11163/matplotlib/issues/11163"}
