Thanks to ppurka, we are finally very close to having easily usable log-scale plots. We would like to take two votes (if anyone cares) on commands for log plots and semilog plots. See http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/4529 for background and examples.
Where it happens (vote for one): [ ] Only in special commands like loglog_plot and the like, and not in usual commands like plot_*. That is, one could not take a plot and then later decide whether or not to show it with a different scale. On the plus side, it would be obvious that one couldn't add two plots with different scales. [ ] In all (or most) plot commands, but then have the plot scale in different axes be handled by keywords/parameters called "scale" and "base" for plot_* but handled in the .show() and .save() methods [ ] Some combination of the above (probably having a few commands like loglog_plot and semilog_plot and loglog_list_plot which automatically would put in the correct show parameters). What actual function names to have (vote for as many as you like): [ ] loglog_plot [ ] semilog_plot(logaxis='x/y') [ ] semilogx_plot/semilogy_plot [ ] loglog_list_plot [ ] semilog_list_plot(logaxis='x/y') [ ] semilogx_list_plot/semilogy_list_plot -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
