I have data in my file format .dat. The data generated using 'C' program. This data file having 3 columns. How can I import this file using Mathematica? Is is possible to plot using ListDensityPlot() function using these three columns of data?

This can be done. Your description looks as if the file you get from C is a dat file. Let us assume it is called data.dat. One way to easily import it is to first save your notebook into the directory, where you have the file in question, and then import the data.dat file into this notebook as follows: Then you can plot it by You might like checking Menu/Help/Import and Menu/Help/ListPlot3D where analogous operations are richly described. |

Importto import the data. There's a tutorial 'tutorial/ImportingAndExportingData' which will help you. – cormullion Apr 24 at 8:27ListDensityPlotwould be appropriate if one of the three values is a function value and the other two form x,y co-ordinates. – image_doctor Apr 24 at 9:56
