In display(points) I saw :
Array with ordinates.
(%i1) load(draw)$
(%i2) a: make_array (flonum, 100) $
(%i3) for i:0 thru 99 do a[i]: random(1.0) $
(%i4) draw2d(points(a)) $
but when I try
plot2d(points(ar));
I got:
No range given. Must supply range of the form [variable,min,max]
-- an error. Entering the Maxima debugger.
So from my point of view the info in display(points) must be wrong.
I see that your example you used listarray but this was not in that help
section that I saw.
Any way thanks and all is well now.
