Versus – scatter versus this

Scatter plots can take a matrix of values, with the X-variable in column-1 and as many Y-variables as required in columns 2-n. It may be more convenient to specify the y-data as a simple vector and set the x-variable as a property:

ch.Set 'xvar' farm
ch.Scatter yield

This makes it very easy to experiment with different permutations of x and y data to try to visualise the relationships in a multi-dimensional dataset.

There is a simple cover function vs in the RainPro workspace to allow expressions like ch.Scatter yield vs variety – you can experiment with the infamous barley data using vs and by here!
