- Plotdata is a software package of a plotter with analysing
- data. With PlotData, data can be plotted on the screen, viewed,
- edited, analysed, differentiated, integrated, calculated, and
- reproducted graphically. Many sets of data can be overlapped to solve
- systems of equations graphically. Users can zoom in and out graph.
- It offers an interactive menu environment for the easy to use,
- and on-line help.
- It can be interfaced with other software, e.g. SymbMath (a
- software package of a symbolic calculator), CurFit (a software package
- of a separator of overlapping peaks) [1-3]. PlotData can read data in
- these software formats without any modification, in the BAS-100
- instrument format, and in many other data formats.
- If SymbMath is interfaced with PlotData, SymbMath
- produces the data table of the functions, and PlotData plots curves
- from the data table, as SymbMath seems to do graphics. Users can use
- this interface to make the pictures, to plot the function values,
- and to solve equations graphically.
- Its on-line help file is a text file, so users can edit it
- as they like.
- It runs on an IBM-PC with 200 KByte RAM under MS-DOS, the
- graphical monitors (CGA, EGA, or Hercules), or the dot matrix
- printers for the hardcopy.
- Shareware version of PlotData (PlotD11A.ZIP) is available
- free from the Plot directory in SIMTEL20 on many anonymous FTP sites
- (e.g. wmrs-simtel20.army.mil, garbo.uwasa.fi, rana.cc.deakin.oz.au).
