Unix Platform....
I've been trying to do this for a bit of time....
Basically, I would like from a C-code, to generate
a list of numbers {{1,2},{2,1}} and plot their positions
using mathematica's handy plotting routines....
If someone could post a way to simply execute a
Plot[x^2,{x,-2,2}], and either have mathematica display
it (in X), or return PostScript to the link stream or
to an output file I would be extremely grateful....
An example of the type of thing I'm trying to do....
from within C-code:
MLPutFunction(link,"Extend",1);
PutString(link,"Plot[x^2,{x,-2,2});
If there was some way of setting the DisplayFunction
so mathematica would then just plot this thing out 'twould
be beautiful. If there was some way I could get it to
output the plot to a postscript file, I would be joyous.
If there was any way I could get useable output, basically
I would be dancing around for weeks....
with much appreciation,
