How do I plot a Lineweaver-Burk plot using Numbers?

I have to create a Lineweaver-Burk plot (Double reciprocal plot) for Biochemistry, but Numbers isn't the most straight forward program to use for this?
Is anyone familiar with how to plot this graph? This Mickey Mouse program is laughable at best...
Thanks for the help!

Hi mattvang and Badunit,

I also need to make ternary plots for my thesis. Since mobile me is now inactive, I cannot access the file you posted. Do you still have it?
I tried to download Badunit's file (that post was June 2011) but could not find it.

The formula for "X" is =IF(B="","",G/1.73205+2*D/1.73205).
I am interested to know what formulas are not shown. What are G and D?
A ternary graph is used to plot percentages of sand, silt and clay. I got this far with an image to go behind the graph:
I constructed an equilateral triangle because the triangle shape in Numbers is not truly equilateral.
If the X axis is to be Sand, we will need to reverse the values (100-Sand) to plot high values on the left.
Getting there!

How to find multiple keys in single cell using Numbers?

I'm trying to add functionality to one of my Numbers tables where want to check a single cell for multiple keywords from a list. The hole thing works perfectly fine in Excel but it behaves differently in Numbers.
The formula I am using is:
=IF(ISERROR(LOOKUP(2^15;FIND($E$2:$E$11;A2)));"not found";"found")
The following screenshots show that it correctly finds the keys in the cell when using Excel but not in Numbers. Although, it seems to work if the key is in the same row as the input cell.

If you are working in Numbers you can do this efficiently with a small AppleScript without going back to Excel or clone. One click and you get the following result:
This script works with Numbers 2.3, which your screenshot suggests you are using. If you are using Numbers 3 it needs a very small adjustment.
This is the script:
--https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6315365?tstart=30
property inputCol : 1 --> col A, as in example
property resultCol : 3 --> col C, as in example
property keysCol : 5 --> col E, as in example
property targDoc : 1 --> 1 is front document; can change to "MyDocName"
property targSheet : 1 --> 1 is first sheet; can change to "MySheetName"
property targTable : 1 --> 1 is first table; can change to "MyTableName"
tell application "Numbers"
          set t to document targDoc's sheet targSheet's table targTable
          set keysList to t's column keysCol's cells's value
          repeat with i from 2 to t's row count -- assumes 1 Header Row
                    set inputVal to t's row i's cell inputCol's value
                    if inputVal is not 0 then --skip blank cells; Numbers 2 reads blanks as 0
                              --check if Input matches a key:
                              if inputVal is in keysList then
                                        set t's row i's cell resultCol's value to "found"
                              else
                                        set t's row i's cell resultCol's value to "not found"
                              end if
                              --check if Input contains a key:
                              repeat with aKey in keysList
                                        if inputVal contains aKey then set t's row i's cell resultCol's value to "found"
                              end repeat
                    end if
          end repeat
end tell
--end of script
To run, copy into AppleScript Editor, change the properties if needed, and click the green triangle 'Run' botton.

How can I create random teams of 2 using numbers on an iPad?

I am trying to create random teams of two for a card tournament. Can this be done using numbers on my iPad?

Here's a solution using Numbers '09. If the functions used are supported in Numbers for iOS, it should work there, too. If not, try reposting in the iWork For iOS community.
Column A of Players contains the names of the players entered in the tournament, in whatever order is convenient.
Column B, which may be hidden, contains the same formula in all cells (except the header cell):
=RAND()
The formula generates a random number between zero and one.
Column A of Teams contains team identifiers. These are text values. they play no part in determining the team selections.
Columns B and C contain similar formulas:
B2: =LOOKUP(SMALL(Players :: $B,2*(ROW()-1)-1),Players :: $B,Players :: $A)
C2: =LOOKUP(SMALL(Players :: $B,2*(ROW()-1) ),Players :: $B,Players :: $A)
These formulas select the players in order of the random numbers in column B of Players. The players corresponding to the smallest, third smallest, fifth smallest...numbers are listed in column B, those corresponding to the second smallest, fourth smallest, sixth smallest... are listed in column C.
The checkbox in Players::A1 is used as a trigger to spur recalculation of the tables and reordering of the teams. Clicking the checkbox toggles the value of that cell between TRUE and FALSE. Any change in a value in a Numbers table causes the table to be recalculated, which reselects the teams.

How do I plot multiple points (scatter) on the same graph?

Hello,
I have a graph with a fixed X-axis and an array of Y values which varies. How do I plot these new y values without replacing the previous ones? E.g to have a scatter of new data? Example of shown in Figure 1 below:
Figure 1: (Note: image was photoshopped to demonstrate goal)
Figure 2: Current block diagram, LabVIEW VI:
Thank you!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Think about what you are really building. You are building an array of clusters, right? For each element in the array you have a cluster whos content has a value for the X axis and a value for the Y axis. As long as you are not connecting the datapoints in the graph (which you aren't), you can plot the datapoints in any order. If you are building your X portion of the cluster seperately than your Y portion of the cluster, you just have to make sure the indexes do not get transposed somehow.
Build the lower half of the attached picture, and you will see what I mean. (hopefully)

How can I plot the 3d plot of a vibrating bridge?

Dear all
My question is as follows:
I want to plot the mode shape of a bridge. Now the deck of the bridge is vibrating, which can be plot. But at the same time; I want to plot the column of the bridge
The question is: when some surface of the 3d plot are vibrating, which means animated plot.How can I plot the stationary multiple curves at the same time.
The attached file is one example, but always the mutiple curves disappear when the surface vibrating.
PS: My VI version is 8.0 How can I save the VI as version 7.x or 6.x, version 8.x seems too new.
Any reply will be appreciated! Many thanks!

Use an XY graph. Use Context Help to see the expected datatype, and refer to examples. Consider the following, remembering to rename the Scale Labels and Plot Name:
a.lia-user-name-link[href="/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/88938"] {color: black;} a.lia-user-name-link[href="/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/88938"]:after {content: '';} .jrd-sig {height: 80px; overflow: visible;} .jrd-sig-deploy {float:left; opacity:0.2;} .jrd-sig-img {float:right; opacity:0.2;} .jrd-sig-img:hover {opacity:0.8;} .jrd-sig-deploy:hover {opacity:0.8;}

How do I plot bar graph using MStudio.NET for VB

I can not find the FillToBase property in waveformplot object using MStudio 7.0 for VB.NET. How can I plot the bar graph like that in Mstudio 6.0.

The Measurement Studio .NET WaveformPlot does not currently have an equivalent for CWPlot's FillToBase property. In the meantime, though, you can use the WaveformPlot's custom drawing services to emulate this functionality. For example, if you dropped a new WaveformGraph on a form, you could copy and paste the following code to draw bar graphs on the WaveformPlot:
Private Sub OnBeforeDrawPlot(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As BeforeDrawXYPlotEventArgs) Handles WaveformPlot1.BeforeDraw
DrawBarGraph(e, 0, Color.BurlyWood, Color.Firebrick)
End Sub
Shared Sub DrawBarGraph(ByVal e As BeforeDrawXYPlotEventArgs, ByVal baseYValue As Double, ByVal outlineColor As Color, ByVal fillColor As Color)
Dim plot As XYPlot = e.Plot
Dim g As Graphics = e.Graphics
If plot.HistoryCount > 0 Then
' Clip the data to just what will be drawn with the current axis ranges.
Dim xData() As Double, yData() As Double
plot.ClipData(xData, yData)
' Calculate the screen coordinates of a base y value and the clipped data.
Dim baseY As Double = CType(plot.MapPoint(e.Bounds, 0, baseYValue).Y, Double)
Dim points As PointF() = plot.MapData(e.Bounds, xData, yData, False)
Dim outlinePen As Pen = Nothing
Dim fillBrush As Brush = Nothing
Try
outlinePen = New Pen(outlineColor)
fillBrush = New SolidBrush(fillColor)
' Iterate through the mapped points and calculate the bar, fill it, and outline it
For i As Integer = 0 To points.Length - 2
Dim currentPoint As PointF = points(i)
Dim nextPoint As PointF = points(i + 1)
Dim barX As Single = currentPoint.X
Dim barY As Single = currentPoint.Y
Dim barWidth As Single = nextPoint.X - currentPoint.X
Dim barHeight As Single = baseY - currentPoint.Y
g.FillRectangle(fillBrush, barX, barY, barWidth, barHeight)
g.DrawRectangle(outlinePen, barX, barY, barWidth, barHeight)
Next
Finally
If Not outlinePen Is Nothing Then
outlinePen.Dispose()
outlinePen = Nothing
End If
If Not fillBrush Is Nothing Then
fillBrush.Dispose()
fillBrush = Nothing
End If
End Try
' Cancel any further drawing since we completely handled the drawing of the plot.
e.Cancel = True
End If
End Sub
Hope this helps.

Make bode plot using Multisim connectivity toolbox

Hi
I have bulid low and high pass filter in Multisim and I would like to make bode plot in LabVIEW to demonstarte the functionality of these filters ( an interactive session for student to let them for example finding threshold voltage using bode plot garph)
I use Multisim connectivity ver 1 to connect Multisim to LabVIEW.Would you please help me how can I work with AC Sweep function of this toolbox and is it possible to make bode plot using this function.
Many thanks

Hi there en99,
Thanks for your post, I have had a look into this for you and have found the following information. In terms of using the Multisim connectivity kit, here is a good introduction of all the VIs an the roper ways to use the API functions.
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/7785
However, in terms of the Bode plot, this can only be done with the functions available in either the Sound and Vibration Module or, and more relevantly, the Control, Design and Simulation toolkit which are purchased separately. More information regarding this can be found at the following link:
http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/203826
More information can be found in the linked Discussion Forum that I found asking a very similar question.

Really confused on making XY plots in Numbers

I'm trying to make an XY plot in numbers from two columns of data. I can't figure this out. Here is an example.
Day
Sum
1
0
8
-11
11
-14
16
-18
18
-20
23
-25
25
-25
30
-25
33
-27
34
-27
36
-29
Let's say I want to make a simple XY plot. In this example "Day" is the X coordinate of the data and "Sum" is the Y coordinate. Excel or if I did this on paper, the graph would look like this (scatter plot function)
In numbers I get this
or if I unselect "share X values" I get this
Neither of these are right. When I try to manually edit the X or Y data values they seem locked together. I think I've played with every toggle available in numbers.
My Numbers version is 3.5.2

Hi ssls,
There are two types of graphs (Charts) in Numbers 3 that require data to be in Body Cells.
In the red "round rectangle" on the left is a Scatter Plot (I think you are looking for this) and on the right is a Bubble Chart (I don't think you are looking for this).
All other graphs are Category graphs (charts) that require the X data to be in a Header in a table.
Reproducing your data in a table with no Header Columns:
Row 1 is a Header Row, and that is OK.
Select Columns A and B and insert a Scatter Plot.
To add the line, click on the graph and Format Panel > Series > Connection Lines > Straight
Is that what you want?

Ian.
