How to use

To use the package you can import it through this command import "@preview/plotst:0.2.0": * (as soon as the pull request ist accepted). The documentation is found in the Docs.pdf in the docs folder. It contains all functions necessary to use this library. It also includes a tutorial to create every available plot under their respective render methods.

If you need some example code, check out main.typ in the examples folder. It also includes a compiled version of the current main.typ

Examples:

All these images were created using the main.typ

Scatter plots

    // Plot 1:
    // The data to be displayed  
    let gender_data = (
        ("w", 1), ("w", 3), ("w", 5), ("w", 4), ("m", 2), ("m", 2),
        ("m", 4), ("m", 6), ("d", 1), ("d", 9), ("d", 5), ("d", 8),
        ("d", 3), ("d", 1), (0, 11)
    )

    // Create the axes used for the chart
    let y_axis = axis(min: 0, max: 11, step: 1, location: "left", helper_lines: true, invert_markings: false, title: "foo")
    let x_axis = axis(values: ("", "m", "w", "d"), location: "bottom", helper_lines: true, invert_markings: false, title: "Gender")

    // Combine the axes and the data and feed it to the plot render function.
    let pl = plot(data: gender_data, axes: (x_axis, y_axis))
    scatter_plot(pl, (100%,50%))
	
	// Plot 2:
    // Same as above
    let data = (
        (0, 0), (2, 2), (3, 0), (4, 4), (5, 7), (6, 6), (7, 9), (8, 5), (9, 9), (10, 1)
    )
    let x_axis = axis(min: 0, max: 11, step: 2, location: "bottom")
    let y_axis = axis(min: 0, max: 11, step: 2, location: "left", helper_lines: false)
    let pl = plot(data: data, axes: (x_axis, y_axis))
    scatter_plot(pl, (100%, 25%))

Pie charts

  show: r => columns(2, r)

  // create the sample data
  let data = ((10, "Male"), (20, "Female"), (15, "Divers"), (2, "Other")
              
  // Skip the axis step, as no axes are needed
              
  // Put the data into a plot 
  let p = plot(data: data)
  
  // Display the pie_charts in all different display ways
  pie_chart(p, (100%, 20%), display_style: "legend-inside-chart")
