測試畫圖

gnuplot 使用多種模式呈現圖

舉例來說上面出現Terminal type set to 'qt' 表示目前使用 qt 模式畫圖

但如果你沒安裝 qt 會顯示不出來

可以先用文字模式畫圖來測試 gnuplot 是否正常，先輸入 set terminal 檢查有哪些模式

gnuplot> set terminal

       cairolatex  LaTeX picture environment using graphicx package and Cairo backend
           canvas  HTML Canvas object

可以看到 dump 就是用 ascii 模擬作圖

以下設定 dump 模式並畫一個範例圖，如果成功出現表示 gnuplot 正常

gnuplot> set terminal dumb
gnuplot> set xzeroaxis
gnuplot> set yzeroaxis
gnuplot> plot [-2:2] acos(1-abs(x))-pi,sqrt(1-(abs(x)-1)**2)

現在改為 qt 模式測試

gnuplot> set terminal qt
Terminal type set to 'qt'
Options are '0 font "Sans,9"'
gnuplot> set xzeroaxis
gnuplot> set yzeroaxis
gnuplot> plot [-2:2] acos(1-abs(x))-pi,sqrt(1-(abs(x)-1)**2)
gnuplot>

會跳出畫好的圖案
