I have a plotted graph using the below in GNUPlot
How do I name each section like 10Mb/s, 15Mb/s, 20Mb/s ,etc in Y Axis?
Currently, I have done
gnuplot> set xlabel "TIME INSECONDS"
gnuplot> set ylabel "Throughput In Mbps"
gnuplot> set title "ESX Throughput"
gnuplot> plot "esxdata.csv" with linespoints linestyle 1
nvm it was
set ytics format "%0.0s Mbp/s"

When I plot a cumulative distribution with gnuplot, it interpolates between datapoints; this is seen in the purple curve. How can I plot my data as a stepwise function like the black curve? Something similar to the step method in matplotlib.

I'm trying to plot two different sets of data on the same graph using gnuplot. The first set must be plotted as boxerrorbars, and the second one as linespoints. But, when I run the code bellow on gnuplot I get the following error:

I can't figure out where the problem really is.
The values in the first column aren't valid numerical values, you must use the zeroth column also when plotting the linespoints (as you already do for the boxes):
dir ='/home/flav/salaak/src/www/plots/'
plot dir.'ranking.1.EnergyPKG.dat' using 0:2:3:xtic(1) with boxerrorbars axes x1y1,\
dir.'ranking.1.EnergyPKG.dsz.dat' u 0:2 w lp axes x1y2
And, please restrict the script you post to a bare minimum, which however still shows the problem. All those ranges, labels, tic settings etc are superfluous and make it more difficult to identify the problem.
I'm trying to do a scatter plot with Y error bars in GNUPLOT, in which the X axis are "names", not numbers.
I'm using this code:
#!/bin/sh
gnuplot -persist <<PLOT
set boxwidth 0.99 relative #ancho relativo de las barras
set border linewidth 1.5
set xlabel "xlabel" font "Verdana,18"
set xlabel offset 0,-1
#set xrange [-5:5]
set xtics font "Verdana,12"
set ylabel "ylabel" font "Verdana,18"
set ylabel offset -2,0
set yrange [-15:15]
set ytics font "Verdana,12"
set key at 4,4 font "Verdana,18"
set style line 1 lc rgb '#0060ad' pt 7 # circle
set xtics rotate by -45 #rota ángulo
plot "file.txt" using 0:2:3:xticlabels(1) with yerrorbars ls 1
quit
PLOT
As a bash script, and then the file.txt is:
Peter 3.06 0.5035
Charles 4.6576 0
Luis -13.1790 0
Where the third column is the Y error bar. However, data appears to initiate exactly in the Origin and not as usual when histogram is used...
Any clues to "shift" or set a range on X with non-numeric values?
Thank you in advance.
If you want to use autoscaling on the x-axis and just add some space to the right and left, then use set offset:
set yrange [-15:15]
set style line 1 lc rgb '#0060ad' pt 7 # circle
set xtics rotate by -45
set offset 0.5,0.5,0,0
plot "file.txt" using 0:2:3:xticlabels(1) with yerrorbars ls 1 notitle
I have the following graph:
first data set display searches.
second data set display clicks.
y1 shows searches scale, y2 shows click scale.
on the x1 I have time values displayed.
I wish to display clicks values (each hour) on x2 (the upper axis).
When I add the command set x2tics it displays the searches data and not the clicks like I wished.
How do I change it so it will display the clicks unit?
Gnuplot script:
set xlabel "Time"
set ylabel "Times"
set y2range [0:55000]
set y2tics 0, 1000
set ytics nomirror
set datafile separator "|"
set title "History of searches"
set xdata time # The x axis data is time
set timefmt "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M" # The dates in the file look like 10-Jun-04
set format x "%d/%m\n%H:%M"
set grid
set terminal png size 1024,768 # gnuplot recommends setting terminal before output
set output "outputFILE.png" # The output filename; to be set after setting
# terminal
load "labelsFILE"
plot 'goodFILE' using 1:3 lt 2 with lines t 'Success' , 'clicksFILE' using 1:2 lt 5 with lines t 'Clicks right Y' axis x1y2
replot

Ok, so to get started, here is how you can set a label with the number of clicks as follows (using you data file names):
plot 'goodFILE' using 1:3 lt 2 with lines t 'Success',\
'clicksFILE' using 1:2 lt 5 with lines t 'Clicks right Y' axis x1y2,\
'' using 1:2:(sprintf("%dk", int($2/1000.0))) with labels axis x1y2 offset 0,1 t ''
Just add this as plotting command, and it should work just fine.
To illustrate, how the labels might look like, here is an example with some dummy data:
set terminal pngcairo
set output 'blubb.png'
set xlabel "Time"
set ylabel "Times"
set y2label "Clicks per hour"
set y2range [0:10000]
set yrange [0:1]
set ytics nomirror
set y2tics
set key left
set samples 11
set xrange[0:10000]
plot '+' using 1:1:(sprintf("%dk", int($1/1000.0))) every ::1::9 with labels axis x1y2 offset 0,1 t '',\
'' using 1:1 with linespoints axis x1y2 pt 7 t 'Clicks per hour'
Which gives you:
I use gnu plot to draw a multiplot and in my script I set the y label like that:
set ylabel "foobar"
Now every plot in the multiplot has a dedicated y label on their y axis. However, I would like to have only one y label for all the plots in the multiplot and center that label also on the common y axis. How can I do that? The multiplot layout I use is a 7.1 So all the plots have the same y axis.
The simplest way is to make the first plot, then turn off the y label:
set ylabel 'foo'
set multiplot
plot 'data1.dat'
unset ylabel
plot 'data2.dat'
plot ...
unset multiplot
This will make the x-dimension of the first plot different from that of all the other plots, so you may have to play with the margins if you want all the plots the exact same size.
Plot the individual panels of reduced size without labels but with border, tics and title, then define a full-sized panel with labels but without border, tics and title.You may have to plot a dummy function (1/0).
Global label workaround
This is not ideal, but if you desperate like me, you can use a rotated global label + larger left margins:
#!/usr/bin/env gnuplot
label_label_size = 14
set terminal png
set output "gnuplot.png"
set multiplot layout 2,1 title "Multiplot with one ylabel" font ",18"
set lmargin 10
set label "My y-label" at screen 0.05,0.5 center front rotate \
font "," . label_label_size
plot sin(x)
set xlabel 'My x-label' font "," . label_label_size
plot cos(x)
Here is a realistic application that motivated me to do this: Heap vs Binary Search Tree (BST)
Tested in gnuplot 5.2 patchlevel 6, Ubuntu 19.04.
This is basically the suggestion from Fabian Claremont's answer, but (for beginners) put into code and visualized. Actually, Ciro Santilli's solution is even shorter.
Tested with gnuplot 5.2. For gnuplot 4.6 (the time of OP's question), replace reset session with reset and set margin 8,-1,1-1 with set lmargin 8 and set bmargin 1.
Code:
### Multiplot with single y-label
reset session
unset key
set sample 500
set multiplot layout 7,1
unset ylabel
set linetype 1 lc rgb "red"
set margins 8,-1,1,-1 # left, right, bottom, top (-1=auto)
set ytic 1.0
set title "Plot 1" offset 0,-1
plot sin(1*x)
set title "Plot 2" offset 0,-1
plot sin(2*x)
set title "Plot 3" offset 0,-1
plot sin(3*x)
set title "Plot 4" offset 0,-1
plot sin(4*x)
set title "Plot 5" offset 0,-1
plot sin(5*x)
set title "Plot 6" offset 0,-1
plot sin(6*x)
set title "Plot 7" offset 0,-1
plot sin(7*x)
set lmargin -1 # automatic lmargin
unset title
set origin 0,0
set size 1,1
set border 0
unset tics
set ylabel "This is a centered y-label"
plot [][0:1] -1 # plot a dummy line out of range
unset multiplot
