### Lines
A simple line plot of the 3 columns.
```julia
plot(rand(100,3))
```
![](../img/qwt/qwt_example_1.png)
### Functions
Plot multiple functions.
```julia
plot(0:0.01:4π,[sin,cos])
```
![](../img/qwt/qwt_example_2.png)
###
You can also call it with plot(f, xmin, xmax).
```julia
plot([sin,cos],0,4π)
```
![](../img/qwt/qwt_example_3.png)
###
Or make a parametric plot with plot(fx, fy, umin, umax).
```julia
plot(sin,(x->begin # /home/tom/.julia/v0.4/Plots/docs/example_generation.jl, line 33:
sin(2x)
end),0,2π)
```

### Global
Change the guides/background without a separate call.
```julia
plot(rand(10); title="TITLE",xlabel="XLABEL",ylabel="YLABEL",background_color=RGB(0.5,0.5,0.5))
```
![](../img/qwt/qwt_example_5.png)
### Two-axis
Use the `axis` or `axiss` arguments.
Note: This is only supported with Qwt right now
```julia
plot(Vector[randn(100),randn(100) * 100]; axiss=[:left,:right],ylabel="LEFT",yrightlabel="RIGHT")
```

### Vectors w/ pluralized args
Plot multiple series with different numbers of points. Mix arguments that apply to all series (singular... see `marker`) with arguments unique to each series (pluralized... see `colors`).
```julia
plot(Vector[rand(10),rand(20)]; marker=:ellipse,markersize=8,colors=[:red,:blue])
```
![](../img/qwt/qwt_example_7.png)
### Build plot in pieces
Start with a base plot...
```julia
plot(rand(100) / 3; reg=true,fillto=0)
```
![](../img/qwt/qwt_example_8.png)
###
and add to it later.
```julia
scatter!(rand(100); markersize=6,color=:blue)
```
![](../img/qwt/qwt_example_9.png)
### Heatmaps
```julia
heatmap(randn(10000),randn(10000); nbins=100)
```
![](../img/qwt/qwt_example_10.png)
### Lots of line types
Options: (:line, :step, :stepinverted, :sticks, :dots, :none, :heatmap, :hexbin, :hist, :bar)
Note: some may not work with all backends
```julia
plot(rand(20,4); linetypes=[:line,:step,:sticks,:dots],labels=["line","step","sticks","dots"])
```
![](../img/qwt/qwt_example_11.png)
### Lots of line styles
Options: (:solid, :dash, :dot, :dashdot, :dashdotdot)
Note: some may not work with all backends
```julia
plot(rand(20,5); linestyles=[:solid,:dash,:dot,:dashdot,:dashdotdot],labels=["solid","dash","dot","dashdot","dashdotdot"])
```
![](../img/qwt/qwt_example_12.png)
### Lots of marker types
Options: (:none, :ellipse, :rect, :diamond, :utriangle, :dtriangle, :cross, :xcross, :star1, :star2, :hexagon)
Note: some may not work with all backends
```julia
plot(repmat(collect(1:10)',10,1); markers=[:ellipse,:rect,:diamond,:utriangle,:dtriangle,:cross,:xcross,:star1,:star2,:hexagon],labels=["ellipse","rect","diamond","utriangle","dtriangle","cross","xcross","star1","star2","hexagon"],linetype=:none,markersize=10)
```
![](../img/qwt/qwt_example_13.png)
### Bar
x is the midpoint of the bar. (todo: allow passing of edges instead of midpoints)
```julia
bar(randn(1000))
```
![](../img/qwt/qwt_example_14.png)
### Histogram
note: fillto isn't supported on all backends
```julia
histogram(randn(1000); nbins=50,fillto=20)
```
![](../img/qwt/qwt_example_15.png)
### Subplots
subplot and subplot! are distinct commands which create many plots and add series to them in a circular fashion.
You can define the layout with keyword params... either set the number of plots `n` (and optionally number of rows `nr` or
number of columns `nc`), or you can set the layout directly with `layout`.
Note: Gadfly is not very friendly here, and although you can create a plot and save a PNG, I haven't been able to actually display it.
```julia
subplot(randn(100,5); layout=[1,1,3],linetypes=[:line,:hist,:dots,:step,:bar],nbins=10,legend=false)
```
![](../img/qwt/qwt_example_16.png)
### Adding to subplots
Note here the automatic grid layout, as well as the order in which new series are added to the plots.
```julia
subplot(randn(100,5); n=4)
```
![](../img/qwt/qwt_example_17.png)
###
```julia
subplot!(randn(100,3))
```
