A section on Ladder Plots

[edit]

I think it would be good if there was a section on ladder plots. Here is a description of the concept though I don't think it can be used directly because of copyright issues.

Color coded plots?

[edit]

I miss an example of a color coded plot of functions of 2 parameters, like this:

Does someone know how this kind of plot is commonly called? In Mathematica it's called a density plot.

Abcissa and ordinate

[edit]

Would it be useful to mention the terms abcissa and ordinate as the names for the axes of an X-Y graph, and that (as I understand) the abcissa is conventionally used for the independent variable and the ordinate is for the dependent variable. Also to link to the Wikpedia entries for abcsissa, ordinate, graph, and cartesian coordinate system. Also, a scholarly comment on the fact that most people call 'plots' by the name 'graphs' in everyday parlance: should we not do that? Stringybark (talk) 21:51, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Some please fix it, I don't know which article is correct. 93.135.195.4 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 15:20, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Time series plots

[edit]
New Zealand electricity generation capacity by fuel type

It could be useful to specifically mention cumulative time series plots. Such as those showing electricity generation capacity (or production) by fuel type as an example. With best wishes. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 09:41, 15 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
