The Data Plotting Software DISLIN: Version 11

English This book describes the data plotting library DISLIN written in the programming languages Fortran and C. The library contains subroutines and functions for displaying data graphically as curves, bar graphs, pie charts, 3-D colour plots, surfaces, contours and maps. DISLIN is intended to be a powerful and easy to use software package for programmers and scientists that does not require knowledge of hardware features of plotting devices. The routines in the library can be called from the programming languages Fortran, C, Perl, Python, Java, Julia, Ruby, R, C-Sharp, BASIC and Ch. Helmut Michels developed DISLIN at the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research (MPS), which moved from Lindau to Göttingen at the beginning of 2014. Helmut Michels studied mathematics at the University of Göttingen and currently works as a mathematician and Linux/Unix system manager at the computer center of the MPS.
