Hi, I need to plot some values reaching up to 10^12 but it refuses to plot higher than 32bit/2 which is a few 10^9. I compiled v3.8k from source. Is it possible?
this:
set xrange [1:10000000000000000000]
show xrange
produces this:
set xrange [ 1.00000 : 2.14748e+09 ] noreverse nowriteback
I appreciate all help. Thanks.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Your problem is not one of the xrange per se, but of how you write those large numbers. If you had written
set xrange [1 : 1e12]
all would have been well. gnuplot behaves like most programming language: it'll try and interpret numbers written without both a decimal point and an exponent as integers.
