how to reference same data set in script twice?

Show all headers | View raw

Hi,

what I'm looking for is an elegant way to reference same
data twice (no file). I have a Python wrapper for plots and
the final script which result looks like (see bottom) ...

In this case we have two data sets. But how to do it when
I would like reference same data set twice without duplicating
the data set? (example: using for fit or displaying same data
with bars instead of lines - multiplot -  or displaying modified
by a function ... there are plenty of variants)

One great solution would be if I could give a
data set a name. Possible? (again: no file wanted)

[code]
cat example.gp
#!/usr/bin/gnuplot
set terminal gif size 640, 480
set output "/tmp/example.gp.gif"
# displaying a plot title
set title "simple example"
# enables displaying a grid
set grid
# plotting values
plot\
    "-" with lines ls 1 title "first curve",\
    "-" with lines ls 2 title "second curve"
1 0
2 1
3 0
4 2
EOF
1 3
2 0
3 2
4 1
EOF
[/code]
