I have installed MacTex 2016 (equivalent to TexLive 2016) on my computer. That distribution contains the package pgfplots, but as I found out with the \pgfplotsversion-command, it's version 1.13.
However, the most recent version is 1.14 and as the documentation uses that version, I encounter some problems because some commands are new to the current version.
Unfortunately I was not able to update the package, by downloading it and moving it to my texmf-folder. Has anybody an idea on how to update from 1.13 to 1.14?
Many thanks in advance!
texdoc pgfplotsin a terminal to get the documentation for the package that is installed on your system. – Torbjørn T. Nov 21 '16 at 16:56
