I have the following GNUplot file:
set title "Performance of Quicksort over random data sets"
set yrange [0:80000]
set style data histogram
set style histogram cluster
set style fill solid border -1
set boxwidth 0.9
plot for [COL=2:6:1] 'timings.dat' using COL
and the following data file:
# Data-size being x-axis, each data size having a histogram-bar for seq/2-t/4-t/8-t/16-t (color-coded)
# Y-axis is time (the information in the columns below Sequential for example being the timings of sequential program for 2^15...2^28)
Data-size Sequential 2-threaded 4-threaded 8-threaded 16-threaded
2^15 6 4 5 7 10
2^16 11 9 9 11 19
2^17 24 17 18 24 32
2^18 49 35 32 43 59
2^19 102 71 70 89 115
2^20 208 145 135 161 201
2^21 431 295 281 333 416
2^22 895 598 550 667 870
2^23 1887 1219 1173 1228 1639
2^24 3852 2979 2478 2621 3457
2^25 7962 4980 4693 5064 6834
2^26 16329 10151 9332 10062 13217
2^27 33775 21039 19072 20008 25196
2^28 69995 43393 38091 40598 52492
And this is what the resulting gnuplot image looks like:
My two issues are:
The x-axis should be labeled according to the data-size column (2^15,...,2^28)
The bars should be named according to their name in the data table (Sequential, 2-threaded, and so on)
I've read through parts of the manual, which got me to this stage, but I'm not experienced enough to understand how what I want can be done unfortunately.
I think what you want is
plot for [COL=2:6:1] 'timings.dat' using COL:xticlabels(1) title columnheader
however you may need to modify the first column powers to 2^{15}
and so on in order that they are properly parsed:
$ cat timings.dat
# Data-size being x-axis, each data size having a histogram-bar for seq/2-t/4-t/8-t/16-t (color-coded)
# Y-axis is time (the information in the columns below Sequential for example being the timings of sequential program for 2^{15}...2^28)
Data-size Sequential 2-threaded 4-threaded 8-threaded 16-threaded
2^{15} 6 4 5 7 10
2^{16} 11 9 9 11 19
2^{17} 24 17 18 24 32
2^{18} 49 35 32 43 59
2^{19} 102 71 70 89 115
2^{20} 208 145 135 161 201
2^{21} 431 295 281 333 416
2^{22} 895 598 550 667 870
2^{23} 1887 1219 1173 1228 1639
2^{24} 3852 2979 2478 2621 3457
2^{25} 7962 4980 4693 5064 6834
2^{26} 16329 10151 9332 10062 13217
2^{27} 33775 21039 19072 20008 25196
2^{28} 69995 43393 38091 40598 52492
