Quick question, hopefully there is a quick answer.  I want to plot
x versus y in Excel.  The values of x are not evenly distributed. 
When I use Excel to plot the pairs however, it evenly spaces the
independent variable (x).  eg:

    x  |  y
   ---------
   1.0   1.0
   2.0   2.0
   3.3   3.3


Excel will plot the above with the same distance between 3.3 and 2.0
as it uses between 1.0 and 2.0 on the abscissa.  Solution?
