It sounds like you want to specify that the plot command should use a marker
other than line, which is the default.

For instance if you have been doing
plot(x,y)  

and getting a line, then try doing this instead

plot(x,y,'.')  

to get unconnected dots.
You can use a variety of markers; there's a list in the pylab 
documentation somewhere.

Hope this helps,
