The set rrange command sets the radial range used to compute x and y values when in polar mode. If not in polar mode (see set polar) then this range is not used. Use of this command offsets the polar singularity to the
value and shifts the units on the axes tic marks. For instance, set rrange [-40:40] would set the origin to -40 and would plot values of radial values between -40 to 40. Thus, if 360 degrees of data were plotted, then the plot would extend 80 units in radially from the origin. To view the entire plot, a set yrange [-80:80] command would create a square viewport with a circular plot tangent at the axes. Because xrange is used specify the angular extent, only a square viewport can be specified by yrange. For instance, set yrange [0:80] would display the first quadrant and set yrange [-80:0] would display the third quadrant. Any square viewport of any size can be specified but it is constrained to be centered on a 45 degree line. This range may also be specified on the plot command line when in polar mode. Syntax: set rrange [{ : }] where and terms are constants or expressions. Both the and terms are optional. Anything omitted will not be changed, so set rrange [:10] changes rmax to 10 without affecting rmin.
