我写了一个objective-c方法来为你的数据集的给定的最小值和最大值返回一个漂亮的轴刻度和漂亮的刻度:
- (NSArray*)niceAxis:(double)minValue :(double)maxValue
{
double min_ = 0, max_ = 0, min = minValue, max = maxValue, power = 0, factor = 0, tickWidth, minAxisValue = 0, maxAxisValue = 0;
NSArray *factorArray = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"0.0f",@"1.2f",@"2.5f",@"5.0f",@"10.0f",nil];
NSArray *scalarArray = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"0.2f",@"0.2f",@"0.5f",@"1.0f",@"2.0f",nil];
// calculate x-axis nice scale and ticks
// 1. min_
if (min == 0) {
min_ = 0;
}
else if (min > 0) {
min_ = MAX(0, min-(max-min)/100);
}
else {
min_ = min-(max-min)/100;
}
// 2. max_
if (max == 0) {
if (min == 0) {
max_ = 1;
}
else {
max_ = 0;
}
}
else if (max < 0) {
max_ = MIN(0, max+(max-min)/100);
}
else {
max_ = max+(max-min)/100;
}
// 3. power
power = log(max_ - min_) / log(10);
// 4. factor
factor = pow(10, power - floor(power));
// 5. nice ticks
for (NSInteger i = 0; factor > [[factorArray objectAtIndex:i]doubleValue] ; i++) {
tickWidth = [[scalarArray objectAtIndex:i]doubleValue] * pow(10, floor(power));
}
// 6. min-axisValues
minAxisValue = tickWidth * floor(min_/tickWidth);
// 7. min-axisValues
maxAxisValue = tickWidth * floor((max_/tickWidth)+1);
// 8. create NSArray to return
NSArray *niceAxisValues = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:[NSNumber numberWithDouble:minAxisValue], [NSNumber numberWithDouble:maxAxisValue],[NSNumber numberWithDouble:tickWidth], nil];
return niceAxisValues;
}
您可以像这样调用该方法:
NSArray *niceYAxisValues = [self niceAxis:-maxy :maxy];
并让您设置轴:
double minYAxisValue = [[niceYAxisValues objectAtIndex:0]doubleValue];
double maxYAxisValue = [[niceYAxisValues objectAtIndex:1]doubleValue];
double ticksYAxis = [[niceYAxisValues objectAtIndex:2]doubleValue];
以防万一您想限制轴刻度的数量,请执行以下操作:
NSInteger maxNumberOfTicks = 9;
NSInteger numberOfTicks = valueXRange / ticksXAxis;
NSInteger newNumberOfTicks = floor(numberOfTicks / (1 + floor(numberOfTicks/(maxNumberOfTicks+0.5))));
double newTicksXAxis = ticksXAxis * (1 + floor(numberOfTicks/(maxNumberOfTicks+0.5)));
代码的第一部分基于我在这里找到的计算来计算漂亮的图形轴比例和类似于 excel 图形的刻度。它适用于所有类型的数据集。下面是一个 iPhone 实现的例子:
