Using a data file as input in tikz












0














I have a sorted data in a file (named data.dat). These data should be plotted vertically. I prepared a code in latex using tikz that works. The problem is each data is typed one by one in the main body of the code and I need a way in which I call the data file and each data is substituted one by one. Here is my code



documentclass[border= 5 pt]{standalone} 
usepackage{times,comment}
usepackage{graphicx}
usepackage{tikz}


newcommand{point}[1]{
draw [<->,purple] ( 0 , #1 ) node[yshift=0,left,font=tiny]{ #1 } -- ( 1 , #1 ) node[yshift=0,right,font=tiny]{ #1 } ; }

begin{document}

begin{tikzpicture}[scale=1]
point{0}
point{1}
point{2}
point{2.5}
point{3.4}
point{4}
point{5.8}
point{6.9}
point{7.5}

end{tikzpicture}

end{document}


The data file can be download from here.
