3.2.4. - Modes 1 & 8: Entering data from keyboard
Under
get-data
mode 1, you will be prompted to type in values for
x
and
y
and, optionally,
r,
s
and
p
in 2D mode and
x,
y
and
z
and, optionally,
s
and
p
in 3D mode.
Error bars may be entered but will be read
only if the error-bar mode has been turned on using the
eb command
or, if in mode 8, a positive number is entered for the error-bar column.
You can enter line-control information only if you have turned the
mode on with the
lc command.
It is unlikely you would need to choose columns when you are typing
in data at the keyboard, but mode 8 may be useful when constructing
command files or if you want the
x,
y
or
z
value
to be simply the index number of the point (by entering a negative
column number).
