#1394 — A problem with generating graphs

Hi,

I a really new to gnuplot and started using it recently. 
When I use the following script to generate a graph:


# Gnuplot script file for plotting data in file "result_standard.dat"
  2 # This file is called script_standard.gpl
  3 #
  4    set   autoscale                        # scale axes automatically
  5    unset log                              # remove any log-scaling
  6    unset label                            # remove any previous labels
  7    set xtic auto                          # set xtics automatically
  8    set ytic auto                          # set ytics automatically
  9    #set key right nobox
 10    set title "Optimum number of coils (nopt) with constant Pt and Pth and va    riable d"
 11    set xlabel "d (meters)"
 12    set ylabel "nopt"
 13    #set size 0.5, 0.5
 14    #set term png size 600, 400
 15    set term png
 16    set output "graph_standard.png"
 17    plot "result_standard.dat" using 1:2 with linespoints


I see the that the string "result_standard.dat" using 1:2 with linespoints
 appears on the graph. I took this script from a google search, and the output shown therein has no such problem.

I am naming my script file with .gpl extension. In the original case, the extension .p had been used to name the file. 

Please point out what is wrong with my script.

Really appreciate your comments.

thanks
Vinod

Hi Vinod,

Try
plot "result_standard.dat" using 1:2 notitle with linespoints
or
plot "result_standard.dat" using 1:2 title "sample curve title" with
linespoints

Regards,
James
