Programs for Color Plotting.

Abstract

This document explains in detail a group of utility and special purpose computer programs. The programs were written to be used with a micro-computer, with a serial port, and to drive a digital plotter. There are programs in this document that can be used to plot paired laboratory data and functions. There are also programs to draw ellipses, regular polygons, circles and pie graphs. There are two polar plotting programs. One polar program to plot data and another to plot a polar function. The programs were written specifically to drive a Houston Hiplot digital plotter with a serial interface. The plotter is a model DPM-43 designed to hold standard typing paper. The plotter is also capable of plotting in six different colors. The programs in this document use plotting software commands specific to the Hiplot plotter and were written in Northstar BASIC. This document will describe, discuss and list these programs and provide examples of the drawings produced. These programs are interactive and user friendly.
