The number of bars to be plotted determines the width of the bar. The H- and
V-VIEW are set to 10, by default. We changed the V-VIEW to better
accommodate the maximum value in column 1 of

ΣDAT. Bar plots are useful

when plotting categorical (i.e., non-numerical) data.

Suppose that you want to plot the data in column 2 of the

ΣDAT matrix:

SETUP window.

Col:

field and type 2

@@@OK@@@, followed by

• Press @CANCL to return to the PLOT WINDOW screen, then $ to return

to normal calculator display.
