Options:

• Variables Group:
  • $A / $B / $C:
    Three variables that you can set and reference in your function.
• Function:
  • Preset Dropdown:
    Selects a preset example function to play with.
  • Function Text Field:
    Type in your equation here. Available variables to use:
    $A / $B / $C: These represent the values set in the above "Variables" group.
    $X: Represents the values along the X-axis as the function is plotted.
    $P: Represents the last value calculated for Y.
• Sample Graph:
  If on, prints out 11 values sampled evenly along the graph.
• Sample At X:
  Allows you to set an X value to sample at along the graph. This can be set to a point off the graph if needed.
• Output Function Group:
  Allows you to do "useful things" with the current function.
  • Number Of Samples:
    Sets how many knots, or array entries, will be output.
  • Scale Factor:
    Scales the values before output. Useful for making a created spline a bit larger.
  • Create Spline:
    Creates a spline object from the current graph.
  • Print Array:
    Prints an array to the listener containing the function curve's values, which can be cut and pasted into another script.

Known Bugs/Limitations:

• Using $P is funky... sample readout will likely be incorrect.
• Doesn't "connect the dots"

History:

2000.01.07 - Created
2000.01.26 - Folded print samples into UI, added Sample At point
2001.02.01 - You can now create splines from the given function
2001.05.20 - Printing arrays of the function
           - Annoying off-by-one graph error finally fixed
           - Made it slower (sigh) but easier to change later
           - Added $P as a variable... just because.
           - Pan and Zoom... finally.
