!############################################################# !## This program demonstrates how to read in data from an external file !## and use PgPlot to plot graphs. It also shows how Do Loops work. !############################################################# PROGRAM Plotter !### First, declare all the variables you are going to use: ## CHARACTER*35 title CHARACTER*8 xtitle,ytitle REAL ymin,ymax,xdata(132),ydata(132) INTEGER i, npoints !### Then, open the file & read the data: ## open(unit=9,name="sheet1Q10.dat",type="old") !Opens the data file and assigns unit number=9 to it. read(9,*)xtitle,ytitle !Reads in the axis labels from unit=9 (data file). npoints=132 !The number of x,y points in the data file. do i=1,npoints !A 'do-loop' - it tells the computer to do everything between 'do' and 'enddo' 132 times. read(9,*)xdata(i),ydata(i) !Reads in all the data - 2 numbers per line (x,y). print*,'Reading line #',i !This will print to screen, letting you know what line it's currently reading. enddo !The end of the do-loop. close(9) !Closes the data file. !### Prepare some stuff for the graph: ## title='Temperature Vs. Mass in the Sun' !Set limits of graph to be plotted: xmin =0.0 xmax=1.0 ymin =3.0 ymax=8.0 !############################################################ !### Below is the code that calls the plotting program PgPlot. ## !### For more info on PgPlot see: www.astro.caltech.edu/~tjp/pgplot/ ## !############################################################ call PGBEGIN(0,'?',1,1) !Opens PgPlot program. call pgsci(1) !Sets colour for the graph border (1=white, 2=red, 3=green, etc.) call pgenv(xmin,xmax,ymin,ymax,0,0) !Makes PgPlot window. [0,0 = not square, draw box with coords] call pgsci(1) !Set colour for the titles. call pglabel(xtitle,ytitle,title) !Plots the titles we set earlier. call pgsci(3) !Sets colour for line. call pgline(npoints,xdata,ydata) !Plots the data. call PGEND !Closes PgPlot. !############################################################ stop END
