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=

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=

ists?
