Data Visualization

Using a host of original algorithms developed at Wolfram Research, Mathematica provides powerful functions that automate the process of creating cognitively and aesthetically compelling representations of structured and unstructured data—not only for points, lines, and surfaces, but also for graphs and networks.

ListPlot — plot lists of points

ListLinePlot — plot lines through lists of points

ListLogPlot ▪ ListLogLinearPlot ▪ ListLogLogPlot ▪ ListPolarPlot

ListPlot3D — 3D plot from lists of 3D height data

ListPointPlot3D — 3D point scatter plot

ListContourPlot , ListDensityPlot — contour and density plots from height values

ListContourPlot3D — 3D contour surfaces from 3D field values

ListCurvePathPlot , ListSurfacePlot3D — reconstruct curves and surfaces from points

ArrayPlot — plot an array of values or colors

ReliefPlot — plot an array with simulated relief

MatrixPlot — plot values in a matrix

DateListPlot , DateListLogPlot — date and time plots
