It allows you to use gnuplot from within Python to plot arrays of data -from memory, data files, or mathematical functions. If you use Python to -perform computations or as `glue' for numerical programs, you can use this -package to plot data on the fly as they are computed. And the combination with -Python makes it is easy to automate things, including to create crude -`animations' by plotting different datasets one after another. - -Commands are communicated to gnuplot through a pipe and data either through -the same pipe (as "inline" data) or through temporary files. It has been -written and tested on a Unix computer. - -This package has an object-oriented design that allows the user flexibility to -set plot options and to run multiple gnuplot sessions simultaneously. If you -are more ambitious, it is not difficult to add entirely new types of plottable -items by deriving from the `PlotItem' class. - -For a demonstration, run the python file by typing `python demo.py'. - -WWW: http://gnuplot-py.sourceforge.net/ |
