Abstract: This enhancement package generates a three-dimensional
representation of data which may be visually rotated
and/or tilted to any desired viewing aspect. It is
particularly useful in illustrating trends and
interrelationships between variables in
multi-dimensional problems.
 
The program will accept up to 330 observations with up
to 6 associated variables. The user selects a sub-set of
3 (X,Y,Z) from the six for display. Data may be entered
via keyboard or via reference to a RT-11 disk file
generated during a previous plotting session.
 
The output may be directed to the VT105 display or to an
on-line X-Y plotter (HP-9872A) interfaced to MINC via
IEEE-488. Use of the plotter option requires the
additional hardware/software support mentioned above. In
the latter case a special FORTRAN character generation
routine is included which allows plotting of up to 72
different types of data markers.
 
Notes: Complete installation instructions, sample test cases
and documentation are included.
