I am trying to learn to use GNUPLOT from C++ using gnuplot-iostream.h
I wrote a very simple program to create an image and save it as PNG but is not working
this is the code
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <random>
#include <numeric>
#include "gnuplot-iostream.h"
void demo_0()
{
Gnuplot gt("\"C:\\Program Files\\gnuplot\\bin\\gnuplot.exe\"");
std::vector<double> v(10,0);
std::iota(v.begin(), v.end(), 0);
std::transform(v.begin(), v.end(), v.begin(), [](auto x) {return x * sin(1.5 * x); });
gt << "set terminal png\n";
gt << "set output 'b.png'\n";
gt << "plot '-' with lines\n";
gt.send(v);
std::cin.get();
}
int main()
{
demo_0();
int n = 1;
return n;
}
the error is
gnuplot> t output 'b.png'
^
line 0: invalid command
If I comment the set terminal and set outputs lines it works fine and generates a plot. But I need to learn how to save it from the program
Thanks in advance for any help.
NOTE: I edited to put set output after terminal and before plot as advised.
