Default Create a data point series

How do I create a data series of every third (3rd) data point in a long string?

Is this what you want?

Decimating the Data (Plotting Every Nth Point)

If you just want the sparse array of points, you can skip the line series
and use the formulas which put #N/A is all but the Nth cells, or use other
formulas which pull the data from every Nth cell into an adjacent column.
