#164540 - A graph normally requires graphics Responding to: ???'s previous message |
I did read "graph" as a graphical presentation of numeric data.
But a polar diagram, bar graph, XY, scatter, ... represents some form of graphics, unless going for the simplest of simple method of representing a bar graph by a varying number of repeated characters. But it is very likely that the OP need to print graphics, to present his graphs. In the end, the job is actually quite simple, if the OP has a basic knowledge of computer graphics, and as long as the processor can spare at least 4-8kB of RAM besides the measurements data, then the job should be doable and with reasonable print times too. |

| Assume nothing! | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Specifications donot provide protocols | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| So you need the technical specifications! | 01/01/70 00:00 | |

| Indeed, but one is a subset of the other. | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| You would do banded output | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| suppose the data is presented in portrait format ... | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Band size doesn't matter so much | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| It only feeds in portrait format | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| No | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
You're right within the scope of your thinking | 01/01/70 00:00 |
