Abstract
In a display system an array of data values such as, for example, an array of speech waveform samples, is represented in a display field by logically dividing the display field into a number of display areas and determining (e.g. in 16), for each value of the data array, the area of the display field within which that value should be displayed, comparing that value to a range for the area in question and updating the range to include that value if it lies outside the range previously defined for that area and then plotting, within each area of the display field, a line joining display screen positions defined by the range in the range storage for that area.
