I have two sets of data A and B of the same length, that I'd like to plot
one against the other - this is easy of course:
ListPlot[Transpose[{A,B}]
What I'd like to do next is to colour each point according to the value of B
(or A in principle). The points are easily generated using:
Point[#]&/@Transpose[{A,B}]
And if I have a list of colours C I can do something like
{Hue[#]&/@C,Point[#]&/@Transpose[{A,B}]}//Transpose//Graphics//Show
The question is how to generate the list of colours C. Note that I don't
want to sort A and B, since I want to leave them alone to plot {A,D}, {A,E}
later on.
I tried various combinations of Ordering[] and Position[] but didn't get
anywhere. Anyone have any idea?
Thanks,
Hywel
