Using this Julia\<-\>Prolog [interface](https://github.com/haldai/Jurassic.pl) I think this is the easiest way to plot data from SWI-Prolog: ```prolog jl_using("Pkg"). % Only if Plots is := 'Pkg'.add("Plots"). % not installed in julia jl_using("Plots"). y := rand(10). plt := plot(y, kw(title, "10 Random numbers"), kw(show, true),kw(hover,y)). ``` I wish [Jurassic](https://github.com/haldai/Jurassic.pl) would be turned into a pack for easy installation. ---

Good alternatives are Nicos’ [real](https://www.swi-prolog.org/pack/list?p=real) package or the _Rserve_ based variant thereof used for SWISH. ---

There is also a **very experimental** package that plots lines and points using [gnuplot](http://www.gnuplot.info/): [https://github.com/damianoazzolini/plplot](https://github.com/damianoazzolini/plplot)
