gdmodule is really more of a low level drawing program than a graphing
module. Of course you can draw graphs with it, as you can with any
drawing program, but it's a lot easier to make scientific graphs (the
OP's interest) with a program designed for that purpose. matplotlib
has a gdmodule backend.
