visualising data.

[Dark88]

Hi guys,
just wondering if someone could help me with some data visualisation. Basically I've got 3 sets of data, x,y,z. Obviously I can plot x against y and against z but is there anyway I can plot x against y and z? So far I haven't found anything on excel to do this. I've also got R (however can't use it very well) so if anyone can think of a solution to this that'll be great. Each series has about 6000 data points.

Thanks,
DM

Excel can do a surface chart for x, y and z data if that's the sort of thing you want.

im not an R guru so dont ask me how it works but:

image(interp(<x>,<y>,<z>))

works. You need to change <x>, <y> and <z> to be the names of your variables.

My guess is the interp function performs some form of interpolation on your data.

Hope this helps.
