The book _gnuplot 5_ is now free of charge.
It’s available as PDFs formatted for laptops or tablets and as a set of Jupyter notebooks for download or to use live.
We hope to come out with _gnuplot 6_ before long, as the new version has some great stuff.

@CRBinz@SWGlassPit gnuplot> array y[5e6]
gnuplot> do for [i=1:5e6] {y[i] = rand(0)}
gnuplot> plot y with points
Plot appears in about 20 seconds (I don’t think gnuplot is too fast with arrays.)
@armando1987dim@DrawsMiguel HTML is a markup system, not a programming language. It has no conditional statements, no control flow, and therefore no way to perform computations.
Gnuplot is absolutely a general purpose programming language, as is, for example, TeX.
@leothrix Pretty gnuplot plots in that article!
You should know that we’re not gnuplot¹, but the book Gnuplot 5, which is a book about gnuplot v.5. And a good one, too.
