Description

diagram(S) sets the current diagram to the one named S; if there is no diagram named S, a new diagram with this name is created.

All subsequent 2D chart drawing and plotting operations will take place in this diagram.

A reference to the diagram is returned.

diagram() instructs the front-end to put each new 2D chart or plot in its own, newly created, and temporary diagram. It is not possible to add other objects to this diagram later on.
