[ gnuplot 4.6 ]
I have some data like this:
06 03 2012 14.00
06 03 2012 234.22
17 03 2012 1.00
17 03 2012 23.01
17 03 2012 66.23
... so that's date vs. cost. I would like to have gnuplot automatically shift the plot over a little on the x-axis for the next cost on a given date. as is, the costs all line up on one impulse (for example). so with impulses, it would be nice to see perhaps (if fixed-width font works here):
o
o |
|o o|
||o o|||o o <---- does not correspond to example above
||| ||||| |
-----------------------
06/03 17/03 18/03
if gnuplot can recognize the record number akin to awk, that might work ...
... HOWEVER I think instead I must adjust my data to be amenable to histograms. in particular, inserting a column to identify each expenditure somehow.
Any suggestions appreciated.
