<P>
The linear projection comes in three flavors: linear, log<IMG

 SRC="img9.gif"
 ALT="$_{10}$">,
and power (or exponential).  The projection for the <I>y</I>-axis can be set
independently from the <I>x</I>-axis.  We will show examples
of all three by first creating dummy data sets using
<A NAME="tex2html295"
  HREF="../gmtmath.html"><I><B>gmtmath</B></I></A><A NAME="5774"></A>, a ``Reverse Polish Notation'' (RPN) calculator that
operates on or creates table data:
