SVG and reading $points from a file

gberar has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I am trying to use SVG::Plot to plot some data from a file and it has the following lines of data 14/7/2011 6:9:27,11935 14/7/2011 7:9:3,11935 The following is from the SVG documentation

my $points = [ [0, 1, 'http://uri/'], [2, 3, '/uri/foo.png'] ];

my $plot = SVG::Plot->new(
                              points      => $points,
                              debug       => 0,
                              scale       => 0.025,
                              max_width   => 800,
                              max_height  => 400,
                              point_size  => 3,
                              point_style => {
                                               fill   => 'blue',
                                               stroke => 'yellow',
                                             },
                              line        => 'follow',
                              margin      => 6,
                            );

My question is how do I get this data into the $points array? Thank you

See the SVG documentation for information on Coordinate Systems, Transformations and Units. A link to SVG::Plot would have been preferable to pasting part of its documentation. I note this is your first post; you may not be aware that below the area where you type your post you'll find lots of information regarding posting here, including (among others): What shortcuts can I use for linking? and How do I post a question effectively?. -- Ken	[reply]
