I need program to calculate and plot average values of per hour, day, month and seasonal.

I have 1440 data in one day. I want to convert hourly, daily, monthly and seasonal mean and plot it.

data = load('yea.dat');

Year=data(:,1);

Month=data(:,2);

Day=data(:,3);

UT=data(:,4);

vTEC = data(:,5);% Ave_vTEC_Obs (TECu)

Hi Lamessa,

As per my understanding, you have some data "yea.dat" file, for which you want to find out mean of each column and plot its values.

For simplicity let's take random values and plot their mean values:

% To generate random values for 5 columns
Data = rand(1440, 5);

% To calculate mean of each column, second parameter "1" representing
% calculation of mean column-wise
Mean_Data = mean(Data, 1);

% To plot the calculated mean values
plot(Mean_Data);
