Labelling individual data points gnuplot

gnuplot

Solution

I think you are missing strings for labels. You can do

flabel(y)=sprintf("y=%.2f", y)
plot '-' u 1:2:(flabel($2)) w labels point offset character 0,character 1 tc rgb "blue"
0.0 0
1.0 25
2.0 55
3.0 110
4.0 456
5.0 554
6.0 345

Problem

Just trying to get used to gnuplot. I searched a few pages on this site looking for the answer, read the documentation (4.6), and still haven't found the answer. say I have a data file like this: ``` 0.0 0 1.0 25 2.0 55 3.0 110 4.0 456 5.0 554 6.0 345 ``` and I want to label all the data points on the plot. How do I do this? I tried this suggestion `plot 'exp.dat' u 1:2 w labels point offset character 0,character 1 tc rgb "blue"` but it didn't work. It gave me a `Not enough columns for this style` response. I'm sure it's something I'm doing but I'm not sure what. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
