Plotting Data in Maple

To plot data from an external data source using Maple, one must read the data from a file and plot the points. As a simple example, a Java program from PH265 has been adopted to output data files that are compatible with maple.

• PH 265 Maple file including new section of data plotting.
• Java files for creating data files to be read into Maple
  • EqHeat_z.java to create file for matrixplot (simple z values)
  • EqHeat_xyz.java to create file with (x,y,z) values for surfdata
• Data files that have already been created by Java programs:
  • EqHeat_z.dat for plotting with matrixplot command
  • EqHeat_xyz.dat for plotting with surfdata command
