I’m using gnuplot to plot a cosine function over a lot of periods
However, the output is very scribbly, because gnuplot uses a low number of points to plot a function. Is there any way to adjust this to include more points?
Output that shows a blocky cosine-function due to low sampling
This is my very minimal code:
set xrange [0:50]
plot cos(x) with linespoints
I tried googling for the answer but I could not find any way to set the number of points when plotting a function. Is there any way to adjust this to include more points, apart from generating my own data table in excel or similar?

Well, I can’t believe that you haven’t found anything searching the web. This is really a RT*M question: (check help samples).
For example:
set samples 500
