Re: [Gnuplot-info] Generating a "noisy" straight line.

[Theo <th...@gm...>]

Hi Aneesh,

is there a reason why you use parametric plot?

The following example:

x1 = 1 # first point
y1 = 3
x2 = 2 # second point
y2 = 5
c = 0.5 # noise level

f(x) = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)*x + y2 - x2*(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) + c*(rand(0)-0.5)

plot [x1:x2] f(x)

gives me a 'noisy' line between the two points.
Is it that what you looked for?

Theo.
