PLplot is a library of C functions that are useful for making scientific
|
|
|
|
|
plots from a program written in C, C++, or Fortran. The PLplot library
|
|
|
|
|
can be used to create standard x-y plots, semilog plots, log-log plots,
|
|
|
|
|
contour plots, 3D plots, mesh plots, bar charts and pie charts. Multiple
|
|
|
|
|
graphs (of the same or different sizes) may be placed on a single page
|
|
|
|
|
with multiple lines in each graph. Different line styles, widths and
|
|
|
|
|
colors are supported. A virtually infinite number of distinct area fill
|
|
|
|
|
patterns may be used. There are almost 1000 characters in the extended
|
|
|
|
|
character set. This includes four different fonts, the Greek alphabet and
|
|
|
|
|
a host of mathematical, musical, and other symbols. The fonts can be
|
|
|
|
|
scaled to any desired size. A variety of output devices are supported and
|
|
|
|
|
new devices can be easily added by writing a small number of device
|
|
|
|
|
dependent routines.
