let's say I have a lot of data of the form
<x-value> <y-value> <standard deviation>
And when I say "a lot" then I mean too much to meaningfully plot every single coordinate with yerrorbars.
I should now like to create a boxplot for, say, every 50 lines (so one at 25 for lines [1..50], one at 75 for lines x=[51..100], etc, etc.).
What is the quickest way to do that with gnuplot?
EDIT
Apparently, my question was not precise enough:
I want to take all values for x=1..50, pretend they all happened at 25, create a boxplot. Take all values for x=51..100, pretend they all happened at 75 and create a boxplot, and so on.
boxplots
, not the averages. I.e. take all values forx=1..50
, pretend they all happened at 25, create a boxplot. Take all values forx=51..100
, pretend they all happened at 75 and create a boxplot, and so on. – User1291
