Re: [Gnuplot-info] splot x,y,z,color w pm3d

[Mikhail K. <mko...@gm...>]

for the last two examples at 
http://gnuplot.sourceforge.net/demo/heatmaps.html, i think the "splot" 
command needs an argument of 1:2:3:4 which is a regular grid of 
parameter 3 and parameter 4 at 1:2, with no blank lines.

other important instructions are:
set pm3d ...
set view ...
set contour ...

the examples are straightforward and understandable but very concise so 
be careful.
