Play with this; learn things; ask questions (with apologies to Scott Bakula):

#! perl -slw use strict; use Data::Dump qw[ pp ]; ## Input to separate arrays my( @xs, @ys ); ( $xs[ @xs ], $ys[ @ys ] ) = split while <DATA>; ## cross xs with ys and get pop count of pairings my %freq; for my $x ( @xs ) { ++$freq{ sprintf "%.2f %.2f", $x, $_ } for @ys; } #pp \%freq; ## most plotters require input as vectors, so split them out my( @rx, @ry, @rz ); ( $rx[ @rx ], $ry[ @ry ], $rz[ @rz ] ) = ( split(), $freq{ $_ } ) for +keys %freq; ## print them as line vectors print "@rx"; print "@ry"; print "@rz"; __DATA__ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0

Output:

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". I knew I was on the right track :)
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
