PostScript::Graph::XY - graph lines and points
Draw a graph from data in the CSV file 'results.csv', and saves it as 'results.ps':
use PostScript::Graph::XY;
my $xy = new PostScript::Graph::XY();
$xy->build_chart("results.csv");
$xy->output("results");
With more direct control:
use PostScript::Graph::XY;
use PostScript::Graph::Style;
my $seq = PostScript::Graph::Sequence;
$seq->setup('color',
[ [ 1, 1, 0 ], # yellow
[ 0, 1, 0 ], # green
[ 0, 1, 1 ], ], # cyan
);

A graph is drawn on a PostScript file from one or more sets of numeric data. Scales are automatically adjusted for each data set and the style of lines and points varies between them. A title, axis labels and a key are also provided.
options may be either a list of hash keys and values or a hash reference. Either way, the hash should have the
same structure - made up of keys to several sub-hashes. Only one (chart) holds options for this module. The
other sections are passed on to the appropriate module as it is created.
Hash Key Module
======== ======
file PostScript::File
layout PostScript::Graph::Paper
x_axis PostScript::Graph::Paper
y_axis PostScript::Graph::Paper
style PostScript::Graph::Style
key PostScript::Graph::Key
chart this one, see below
This may be either an array or the name of a CSV file. See line_from_array or line_from_file for details. If data is given here, the chart is built automatically. There is no opportunity to add extra lines (they should be included in this data) but there is no need to call build_chart explicitly as the chart is ready for output.
Set to 0 if key panel is not required. (Default: 1)
Set to 0 to hide lines and make a scatter graph. (Default: 1)
Set to 0 to hide points. (Default: 1)
All the settings are optional and the defaults work reasonably well. See the other PostScript manpages for details of their options.
An array reference pointing to a list of positions.
A string to represent this line in the Key.
This should be a hash reference containing keys and values suitable for a PostScript::Graph::Style object. If present, the object is created with the options specified.
It is also acceptable to create a PostScript::Graph::Style object independently and pass that in here.
One or more lines of data is added to the chart. This may be called many times before the chart is finalized with build_chart.
Each position is the data array contains an x value and one or more y values. For example, the following points will be plotted on an x axis from 2 to 4 a y axis including from 49 to 57.
[ [ 2, 49.7 ],
[ 3, 53.4 ],
[ 4. 56.1 ], ]
This will plot three lines with 6 points each.
[ ["X", "Y", "Yb", "Yc"],
[x0, y0, yb0, yc0],
[x1, y1, yb1, yc1],
[x2, y2, yb2, yc2],
[x3, y3, yb3, yc3],
[x4, y4, yb4, yc4],
[x5, y5, yb5, yc5], ]
The first line is made up of (x0,y0), (x1,y1)... and these must be there. The second line comes from (x0,yb0), (x1,yp1)... and so on. Optionally, the first row of data in the array may be labels for the X and Y axis, and then for each line.
Where multiple lines are given, it is best to specify label as an option. Otherwise it will default to the
name of the first line - rarely what you want. Of course this is ignored if the new option 'y_axis => title'
was given.
fileThe name of a CSV file.
labelA string to represent this line in the Key.
optsThis should be a hash reference containing keys and values suitable for a PostScript::Graph::Style object. If present, the object is created with the options specified.
styleIt is also acceptable to create a PostScript::Graph::Style object independently and pass that in here.
The comma seperated file should contain data in the form:
x0, y0
x1, y1
x2, y2
Optionally, the first line may hold labels. Any additional columns are interpreted as y-values for additional lines. For example:
Volts, R1k2, R1k8, R2k2
4.0, 3.33, 2.22, 1.81
4.5, 3.75, 2.50, 2.04
5.0, 4.16, 2.78, 2.27
5.5, 4.58, 3.05, 2.50
Where multiple lines are given, it is best to specify label as an option. Otherwise it will default to the
name of the first line - rarely what you want. Of course the new option 'y_axis => title' takes precedence
over both.
Note that the headings have to begin with a non-digit in order to be recognized as such.
An array reference pointing to a list of positions. See line_from_array.
The name of a CSV file. See "line_from_file".
A string to represent this line in the Key.
This should be a hash reference containing keys and values suitable for a PostScript::Graph::Style object. If present, the object is created with the options specified.
It is also acceptable to create a PostScript::Graph::Style object independently and pass that in here.
If the first parameter is an array they are all passed to line_from_array, otherwise if there are any parameters they are passed to line_from_file. With no parameters, either of these two functions must have already been called.
This method then calculates the scales from the data collected, draws the graph paper, puts the lines on it and adds a key.
Return the underlying PostScript::File object.
Return the underlying PostScript::Graph::Key object. Only available after a call to build_chart.
Return the underlying PostScript::Graph::Paper object. Only available after a call to build_chart.
Return the style sequence being used. This is only required when you wish to alter the ranges used by the auto style feature.
Output the chart as a file. See output in PostScript::File.
Start a new page in the underlying PostScript::File object. See newpage in PostScript::File and set_page_label in PostScript::File.
Add functions to the underlying PostScript::File object. See add_function in PostScript::File for details.
Add postscript code to the underlying PostScript::File object. See add_to_page in PostScript::File for details.
The PostScript functions are provided as a class method so they are available to modules not needing an XY object.
This is still alpha software. It has only been tested in limited, predictable conditions and the interface is subject to change.
