See visad/examples/Test34.java. It displays a data object
(a FlatField named histogram1) with MathType
(ir_radiance -> count)
that is displayed according to the ScalarMaps:
ir_radiance -> XAxis
count -> YAxis
count -> Green
The visad.paoloa.GoesCollaboration.java also has four simple
x, y plots in its display2.

A MathType may be a primitive type, or may be a composite type
built up from primitive types. So in Test34.java, ir_radiance
and count are primitive types (in VisAD, they are called RealTypes
or TextTypes) and thus also MathTypes, and (ir_radiance -> count)
is a composite MathType but not a primitive type.
Cheers,
Bill
