Padding lists for accurate plotting
$begingroup$
I have the following data which is in the form of irregular/non rectangular arrays
list1 = {{1}, {2}, {3}, {4}, {5, 6, 7}, {8, 9, 10}, {11}, {12}}
To transpose it for plotting, I have to use (because of the irregular shape)
list2 = Flatten[list1, {{2}, {1}}]
This is now a $3times1$ column.
I want to plot this data, So I use the ListLinePlot
as
ListLinePlot[list2, DataRange -> {1, 3}, Frame -> True]
The three rows are plotted as three curves, but the problem is that the upper two curves which correspond to the second and third row of list2
also start from 1
on the x-axis.? Shouldn't they start from 2 instead of 1? I thought I could use PadLeft
or PadRight
with empty entries {}
to the left or right of the last two (2 element) rows of list2
(to make them 6 element rows, like the first row of list2
) to force the two curves to start from 2, but I failed. Could someone tell any workaround?

DoesListLinePlot[Transpose[PadRight[list1]], DataRange -> {1, 3}]
do what you want?

@J.M.isslightlypensive Thanks. But it gives zeros on right and left which actually do not do the trick, however, if they are somehow empty, would do the trick.
