SUMMARY

The discussion centers on using Mathematica to create a semi-logarithmic plot with a logarithmic X-axis and a linear Y-axis. The user, Nino, initially attempted to use the LogPlot function, which only supports a logarithmic Y-axis. The solution provided involves using the ParametricPlot function with Log[t] for the X-axis and the desired function f[t] for the Y-axis. Additionally, the LogLinearPlot function is suggested as an alternative for achieving the desired plot configuration.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with Mathematica software
  • Understanding of logarithmic and linear scales in plotting

I am a new user of Mathematica software, and need to plot a quite complicate function using a semi-Log type plot. The function that the software provides is LogPlot however this function plots the Y axis in Log scale and the X in linear scale, but I need the exact opposite, to plot the X axis in the Log and Y in linear. Does anybody know how to deal this plot within Mathematica ?

Thank's a lot

Nino
