John, try this simple way:
f[x_] := Sin[2 x];
ParametricPlot[{f[x], x}, {x, 0, 2}]
try also this one:
ListLinePlot[Table[{Sin[2 x], x}, {x, 0, 2, 0.01}]]
Have success, Alexei
When using Plot to plot F[x] as a function of x, Mathematica automatically =
assigns the independent variable x to the horizontal axis and the dependent=
variable F[x] to the horizontal. I often want to switch this around so th=
at the independent variable runs on the vertical axis and the dependent on =
the horizontal. I feel sure there ought to be a simple way to tell Plot to=
make this change but I have never found it and instead have resorted to co=
nvoluted approaches. Can anyone tell me what the simple trick is, if it ex=
ists?
Thanks
John Finnigan
