Algosim documentation: ScatterPlot

ScatterPlot

Creates an XY scatter plot.

Syntax

Description

If data is a sequence of (X, Y) points, then ScatterPlot(data) creates a scatter plot from this data.

Technically, data can be a plain sequence of points as function arguments, a list of points, or an n×2 real matrix in which each row represents a single point.

The chart is shown in the current diagram and a reference to the chart is returned.

To plot the graph of a function using points only, you may combine ScatterPlot with the graph function. But it is more convenient to use plot instead.

Examples

ScatterPlot(❨1, 1❩, ❨2, 5❩, ❨3, −2❩)

or

ScatterPlot('(❨1, 1❩, ❨2, 5❩, ❨3, −2❩))

A ≔ ❨❨1, 1❩, ❨2, 5❩, ❨3, −2❩❩
⎛ 1   1⎞
⎜ 2   5⎟
⎝ 3  −2⎠
ScatterPlot(A)
