![]() The grid is often useful when plotting a data set. All values (start, stop and increment) are casted to integer values. For example for will increment i from 0 to 6 in 2 steps: i = 0, 2, 4, 6. In these case the for iteration loop results very useful: p for "data_set.dat" using 1:col w lpīriefly the for iteration increment the variable in the loop, in this case col, with a decided steps (if not specified = 1). In the case you have more columns and want to plot them all in the same graph just pass to the plot function any argument you prefer, by separating them with a ,: p "data_set.dat" u 1:2 w lp,\Īnyway sometimes there could be too much columns to write one by one. which means 'plot the file using column 2 as X and column 4 as Y'. To specify the columns to be plotted use the using specifier. The default settings will use the first two columns of your data file, respectively x and y. to use columns 1 and 3: hence we use the command u 1:3 to plot T and compare to the out file. gnuplot will produce a graph in your output destination. # the abbreviated form is completely equivalent: This is a small tutorial for gnuplot use with Basilisk. E.G.: plot "data_set.dat" using 1:4 with linespoint An useful style for data plotting is linespoint which is, obviously, "lines points". Which will plot the same as if you do not type with point. As said before, the default style is point plot "data_set.dat" using 1:4 with point There are also different style (see gnuplot documentation or Selecting a plotting style for further infos) for plotting points. In the case your data set is a tridimensional file just use splot ad add the z-column splot "data_set.dat" using 1:2:3 Using the same input file (ex.tsv), and creating a gnuplot script to better control the details set style data histogram set style fill solid border -1 plot for i2:3 '/dev/stdin' using i:xtic (1) title col and gnuploting the data: gnuplot -p ex.gnu < ex.tsv we see the correspondent histogram. Which means "plot the file using column 2 as X and column 4 as Y". To specify the columns to be plotted use the using specifier plot "data_set.dat" using 2:4 Gnuplot will produce a graph in your output destination. Now everything is ready to make the data plot: by typing only plot "data_set.dat" ![]() # Prototype of a gnuplot data setĪs you can see you can write in your data set in floating point notation. The default gnuplot command plot (also only p) plot dataset with columns, of the form of the data_set.dat file below.
