Installation

Graphics Explorer is written for Windows.
Click on the download (lightning) icon at the top of this page to download graphxl.exe
There is no installation procedure.
Just copy the .exe file to a folder of choice.

The program contains in-line help.

Features

    - coordinate system 800 * 800 pixels
    - crosshairs with (x,y) indication
    - 9 different formulas or polynomials
    - scrolling and zooming with mouseclick, x/y independent
    - add or delete dots with mouseclick or by table editing
    - calculate polynomial degree 0..7 through set of dots
    - calculate exponential function through set of dots
    - calculate circle through 3 dots
    - recognizes 4 types of functions/equations:

      typeexampledescription
      1y = f(x)y = 3cos(5x)function
      2x = f(y)x = (y-1)^2inverse
      3y = f(v) ; x = g(v)y = 5sin(2v) ; x = 7cos(3v)parametric
      4f(x) = g(x)(x2+y2)(y2+x(x+10))=40x*y2implicit

    - enter polynomials, degree 0..7, in "coefficient" table
    - operations on polynomials:
    • reflections
    • integration
    • differentiation
    • sum, difference, product
    - use of constants a,b,c in formula's
    - a,b,c changable by mouseclick, graphics adjust automatically
    - plot function (type 1) 1..3 times differentiated
      by simply preceding it by d:, dd: or ddd: .
      example: y = d:sin(2x)
    - plot function (type 1) integrated
      by simply preceding it by i: .
      example: y = i: 5sin(x)
    - compute the area under a function
    - exponential functions through set of dots:
    y = a.bx y = a.bx + c
    y = a.ebx y = a.ebx + c
    y = eax^2 + bx + c
    - all formula colors adjustable to personal preference.
    - add personal heading to plots and prints.
    - save / reload formulas together with color and settings
    - copy graphic image to clipboard
    - save graphic image in .bmp file
    - mouse- or keyboard operation
    - in line help documentation
