Re: [Gnuplot-info] Plot time related data by hour, not by day

[Thomas S. <t.s...@fz...>]

you may neglect the date information by dividing the 'seconds
since beginning of the epoch' modulo 24*60*60

set datafile separator ","
set timefmt "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"
set format x "%H:%M"
plot "datafilename" using (((int(timecolumn(1)) % 86400)/3600)*3600):3
