Hi Bala,
the following may help ...
from pylab import *
m = loadtxt("test") # load data
# first solution
figure(1)
for i in xrange(len(m[:, 0])):
# run through the columns and plot matrix data
# over index-array
scatter(arange(len(m[i, :])), m[i, :])
# second solution with same result
figure(2)
# generate a x-array, whose elements should correspond to
# the matrix elements (as above)
x = ones(len(m[:, 0]))[:, newaxis]*arange(len(m[0, :]))
scatter(x, m)
show()
for more options of scatter see for instance the docu at
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/pyplot_api.html?highlight=scatter#matplotlib.pyplot.scatter
or the examples at
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/scatter_demo.html?highlight=scatter
