I have some data, which I have to plot with gnuplot 4.1. This works fine. Now I have data, where not all rows/columns in my input-file are filled with data like
1 2 5 6
2 X 6 9
3 1 X 3
4 X X 10
5 3 5 9
at X there is no data available.
Is is possible to create one data-file for the input (for example with using a wildcard like the X), or must I create for every column a data file (in this case 3 different files)???
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
You obviously don't have any problems creating that multi-column file --- you already did it just fine ;->
gnuplot doesn't have particularly big problems using such files, either. You'll want to read 'help using' and 'help missing' attentively, but in general, data like this will just work.
