I have a data file with measurements, each measurement has been repeated 5 times. However because of a bug in the apparatus software the first and the second measurement are always unreliable, therefore I want to skip them
i.e. I don't want to plot these unreliable data points, neither do I want to use them for fitting to a function.
This is an example:
1 #unreliable
1.5 #unreliable
3 #reliable
3.1 #reliable
2.9 #reliable
#start of next 5 measurements:
3 #unreliable
3.1 #unreliable
3.5 #reliable
3.4 #reliable
3.6 #reliable

Can anyone here show me how to do is from within Gnuplot?

kind regards,
Hugo
