SYNOPSIS
SUBROUTINE PLTSCT(Y,X,Char,N,D,Dmin,Dmax)
DESCRIPTION
pltsct(3f) yields a narrow-width (71-character) plot of y(i) versus x(i):
1. with special plot characters; and 2. with only those points (x(i),y(i)) plotted for which the corresponding value of d(i) is between the specified values of dmin and dmax. its narrow width makes it appropriate for use on a terminal.
the ’special plotting character’ capability allows the data analyst to incorporate information from a third variable (aside from y and x) into the plot.
the plot character used at the i-th plotting position (that is, at the coordinate (x(i),y(i))) will be
1 if char(i) is between 0.5 and 1.5 2 if char(i) is between 1.5 and 2.5 [char46] [char46] [char46] 9 if char(i) is between 8.5 and 9.5 0 if char(i) is between 9.5 and 10.5 a if char(i) is between 10.5 and 11.5 b if char(i) is between 11.5 and 12.5 c if char(i) is between 12.5 and 13.5 [char46] [char46] [char46] w if char(i) is between 32.5 and 33.5 x if char(i) is between 33.5 and 34.5 y if char(i) is between 34.5 and 35.5 z if char(i) is between 35.5 and 36.5 x if char(i) is any value outside the range
0.5 to 36.5. the use of the subset definition vector d gives the data analyst the capability of plotting subsets of the data, where the subset is defined by values in the vector d.
