3.9 1D plotting

These functions perform plotting of 1D data. 1D means that data depended from only 1 parameter like parametric curve {x(i),y(i),z(i)}, i=1...n. There are 5 generally different types of data representations: simple line plot (Plot), line plot with filling under it (Area), stairs plot (Step), bar plot (Bars, Barh) and vertical lines (Stem). Each type of plotting has similar interface. There are 3D version and two 2D versions. One of last requires single array. The parameters of line and marks are specified by the string argument. If the string parameter is "" then solid line with color from palette Pal is used (see section Pallete and colors). Also there are some special 1d plots having slightly different interface: surface of curve rotation (Torus), chart (Chart) and error boxes (Error), marks with variable size (Mark), tubes (Tube) and so on. See section Line styles. See section 1D plot sample, for sample code and picture.
