Title example 2
How to create a main title and X and Y axis titles 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 and X and Y axis titles on a plot using the default resources. The names of the source files for this example are ti02c.c, ti02f.f, and ti02n.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 ti02.res. This file shows
how to set the title names for the main title and each axis.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 ti02c.c.
Creating the plot using HLU FORTRAN library calls
The HLU FORTRAN program that generates this plot is called ti02f.f.
Creating the plot using NCL
The NCL script that generates this plot is called ti02n.ncl.
The data
This plot does not use any external data.
How to run this example
You can produce this example by using a C program (ti02c.c), a FORTRAN program (ti02f.f), or an NCL script (ti02n.ncl). The examples are installed in the following locations:
