The files listed here under laptop and tablet formatting contain the exact same content, but are formatted to work best on typical screen shapes for different devices. You are welcome to view or download both versions if you wish, to see which one works better on your device, or to use the book on your various devices.
This file is a zip archive of the data files and images that are used by some of the scripts in the book. Download, save in the directory from where you will be running gnuplot, and unzip.
If you would like to try out the new features in gnuplot v.5.4, it is probably best to go to the official site, where you can download and compile the program. However, if you are having trouble compiling, you can try downloading and running this gnuplot binary. We have compiled the sources on a Linux machine with x86_64 architecture. This compilation does not include the qt terminal, but does have sixel support, and most other features. It is dynamically linked, so if you are missing some libraries some features may not work, or it may not run at all. If you would like to try it, remember to check that it has executable permissions after you download it, and that it is on your path.
In addition to the PDF versions of Gnuplot 5, we offer most of its chapters in the form of Jupyter notebooks. This is a technology that allows you to run programs directly in a web browser, without installing any software. This version has exactly the same content as the PDF version, except that chapters with no interactive content, such as Chapter 0 on installation, and Chapter 9 on LaTeX, as well as Chapter 10, are omitted. The Jupyter notebooks also have no table of contents, indices, nor internal hyperlinks; therefore they should be considered interactive companions to the PDF book.
You can download this zipfile containing all the chapters in Jupyter notebook form. In order for you to use them, you will need to have installed Python, Jupyter, and the gnuplot Jupyter kernel.
Another option is to use our gnupyter (gnuplot + Jupyter) service. For this, you will need nothing except a web browser and an internet connection. If you intend to use this, do not download the zipfile; the interactive chapters will be provided through the service. Start by reading these instructions.
