Difference between plot() and scatter() functions in MATLAB
The main difference between the plot() and scatter() functions in MATLAB lies in how they visualize data:
- plot(): The plot() function connects data points with lines, creating a continuous plot. It is commonly used for visualizing trends and relationships in data.
- scatter(): The scatter() function displays individual data points as markers without connecting them with lines. It is useful for showing the distribution and clustering of data points.
When deciding between plot() and scatter(), consider the nature of your data and the type of visualization you want to create. Use plot() for continuous data or when you want to emphasize trends, and use scatter() for discrete data or when you want to highlight individual data points.
