Title example 1
How to create a main title with default settings
This example can be created using HLU C library calls, HLU FORTRAN library calls, or NCL. It demonstrates how to create a main title on a plot using the default resources. The names of the source files for this example are ti01c.c, ti01f.f, and ti01n.ncl.
Discussion
This module discusses how to create this plot using HLU function
calls or NCL. A resource file is included with this example, and it is
called ti01.res. This file shows
all the default Title resources.A detailed discussion of how this example works appears in its source code.
Creating the plot using HLUs
The HLU C program that generates this plot is called ti01c.c.
Creating the plot using HLU FORTRAN library calls
The HLU FORTRAN program that generates this plot is called ti01f.f.
Creating the plot using NCL
The NCL script that generates this plot is called ti01n.ncl.
The data
This plot does not use any external data.
How to run this example
