I am implementing this method to rid of x axis labels and my plot looks
fine, but occasionally get an error message after my plot command:

% Program caused arithmetic error: Floating overflow

Is there a way to get rid of this error message?
Some way to check the data before the plot command?
I have an end-user of my program who thinks something is wrong
anytime he sees this error message.
