DESCRIPTION

add_sample increments the current value corresponding to this x by y. set_sample replaces the current value corresponding to this x.

If rangex is 0, or larger than the bound plane will support, it is capped to the available space. The domain can either be specified as miny and maxy, or domain autodetection can be invoked via setting both to 0. If the domain is specified, samples outside the domain are an error, and do not contribute to the plot. Supplying an x below the current window is an error, and has no effect.

More granular block glyphs means more resolution in your plots, but they can be difficult to differentiate at small text sizes. Sextants and Braille allow for more resolution on the independent variable. It can be difficult to predict how the Braille glyphs will look in a given font.

The same ncplot_options struct can be used with all ncplot types. The flags field is a bitmask composed of:

•

NCPLOT_OPTION_LABELTICKSD: Label dependent axis ticks

•

NCPLOT_OPTION_EXPONENTIALD: Use an exponential dependent axis

•

NCPLOT_OPTION_VERTICALI: Vertical independent axis

•

NCPLOT_OPTION_NODEGRADE: Fail rather than degrade blitter

•

NCPLOT_OPTION_DETECTMAXONLY: Detect only max domain, not min

•

NCPLOT_OPTION_PRINTSAMPLE: Print the most recent sample

If NCPLOT_OPTION_LABELTICKSD or NCPLOT_OPTION_PRINTSAMPLE is supplied, the legendstyle field will be used to style the labels. It is otherwise ignored.

The label is printed in the upper left, immediately to the right of the topmost axis tick (if NCPLOT_OPTION_LABELTICKSD was used). The most recent sample is printed opposite from the label along the independent axis (if NCPLOT_OPTION_PRINTSAMPLE was used).

NOTES

RETURN VALUES

plane returns the ncplane on which the plot is drawn. It cannot fail.
