NAME

       graph - draw a graph

SYNOPSIS

       graph [-a spacing [start]] [-b] [-c string] [-g gridstyle]
	    [-l label] [-m connectmode] [-s]
	    [-x [l] lower [ upper [spacing]]]
	    [-y [l] lower [upper [spacing]]] [-h fraction]
	    [-w fraction] [-r fraction] [-u fraction] [-t] ...

DESCRIPTION

       graph  with  no	options takes pairs of numbers from the standard input as abscissaes and ordinates of a graph.	Successive points are con-
       nected by straight lines.  The standard output from graph contains plotting instructions suitable for input to plot(1B) or to  the  command
       lpr -g (see lpr(1B)).

       If  the coordinates of a point are followed by a nonnumeric string, that string is printed as a label beginning on the point. Labels may be
       surrounded with quotes "...", in which case they may be empty or contain blanks and numbers; labels never contain NEWLINE characters.

       A legend indicating grid range is produced with a grid unless the -s option is present.

OPTIONS

       Each option is recognized as a separate argument. If a specified lower limit exceeds the upper limit, the axis is reversed.

       -a spacing[ start ]

	   Supply abscissaes automatically (they are missing from the input); spacing is the spacing (default 1). start is the starting point  for
	   automatic abscissaes (default 0 or lower limit given by -x).

       -b

	   Break (disconnect) the graph after each label in the input.

       -c string

	   String is the default label for each point.

       -g gridstyle

	   Gridstyle is the grid style: 0 no grid, 1 frame with ticks, 2 full grid (default).

       -l label

	   label is label for graph.

       -m connectmode

	   Mode (style) of connecting lines: 0 disconnected, 1 connected (default).  Some devices give distinguishable line styles for other small
	   integers.

       -s

	   Save screen, do not erase before plotting.

       -x [ l ] lower [ upper [ spacing ] ]

	   If l is present, x axis is logarithmic. lower and upper are lower (and upper) x limits.  spacing, if present,  is  grid  spacing  on  x
	   axis.  Normally these quantities are determined automatically.

       -y [ l ] lower [ upper [ spacing ] ]

	   If  l  is  present,	y  axis is logarithmic. lower and upper are lower (and upper) y limits.  spacing, if present, is grid spacing on y
	   axis.  Normally these quantities are determined automatically.

       -h fraction

	   fraction of space for height.

       -w fraction

	   fraction of space for width.

       -r fraction

	   fraction of space to move right before plotting.

       -u fraction

	   fraction of space to move up before plotting.

       -t

	   Transpose horizontal and vertical axes. Option -x now applies to the vertical axis.

BUGS

       graph stores all points internally and drops those for which there is no room.

       Segments that run out of bounds are dropped, not windowed.

       Logarithmic axes may not be reversed.
