PLSTAR(3plplot) PLplot API PLSTAR(3plplot)
NAME
plstar - Initialization
SYNOPSIS
plstar(nx, ny)
DESCRIPTION
Initializing the plotting package. The program prompts for the device keyword or number of the desired output device. Hitting a RETURN in
response to the prompt is the same as selecting the first device. If only one device is enabled when PLplot is installed, plstar(3plplot)
will issue no prompt. The output device is divided into nx by ny subpages, each of which may be used independently. The subroutine
pladv(3plplot) is used to advance from one subpage to the next.
Redacted form: plstar(nx, ny)
This function is used in example 1.
ARGUMENTS
nx (PLINT, input)
Number of subpages to divide output page in the horizontal direction.
ny (PLINT, input)
Number of subpages to divide output page in the vertical direction.
