Dear List,
My data consist of nine columns and about 50,000 rows. It looks like
this.

The values in each of the nine columns are almost normally
distributed but have slightly different heights of nine normalised
bell shaped plots.
I was trying to plot each row as a point with error bars. The
central point will be the mean of the nine values in each of rows
and the max and min of the row will be the upper and lower bound of
the error bar. I expect a normally distributed plot with spikes
around. Can any one please help me plotting data in this way ?
Many thanks for any input.
I am confused about what is desired. First you describe the
distributions of the full dataset's columns. Then you ask for a plot
by rows, but you say it will be a normally distributed plot (which it
is not). What are the x-axis and y-axis supposed to be?
