    oops.  11, not 21

set samples 21
plot sample [t=0:2] '+' using (t+log(t+1)) : (sqrt(t)+sin(t)) : (0.05) with circles

There is currently no way to directly specify a step size for sampling, but since you
can control the endpoints and the number of samples it is still possible.

Several, but I think the one I show above is the easiest.

Hello.

I want to plot the parametric function
x(t) = t+log(t+1)
y(t) = sqrt(t)+sin(t)

from t=0 to t=2

in steps of dt = 0.2

using circles of radius 0.05 (instead of points)

I searched for about 2 hours but could not find how to do this directly
in gnuplot.  I could create a data file and then plot that, but I want to
plot the functions directly.

Is there a way to do that in gnuplot?

Thank you.
