GraphApplet 1.05 |
Description |
The GraphApplet 1.05 is a full featured Graphing Calculator with some rare features added.
It is recommended that you use Netscape 4.x or higher or IE 4.x or higher
for this applet and
at least 800x600 resolution with more than 256 colors. Result in older
browsers and with different
resolution or color depth may vary, some problems have been noticed
in older browsers.
The GraphApplet has all the common operators and functions as expected
from any scientific
calculator and combines it with function graphing capabilities.
The GraphApplet supports juxtaposition which means you can write your
expressions just as you
would write them on a piece of paper, for example xcos(x) or 5x^3-6x
The GraphApplet has support for symbolic differentiation using the diff function.
To use the applet as a calculator click on the buttons or use the keyboard
to form your expression
and then press enter or click the Eval button to evaluate.
Note that when you click on a function button it will fill in a left
parenthesis, you will have to match it
with a right parenthesis either by clicking on the ) button
or enter it with the keyboard.
To draw a function enter the function by clicking on the buttons or
enter them with the keyboard
and then press the PlotF button, you can only draw function
of type y=f(x) .
To zoom into an area, select an area with the mouse ( click, hold down
and drag ) and release,
the area you selected will be zoomed in, to zoom out use the ZOut
button.
To reset the bounds to the original x:[-10,10] y:[-10,10] click on
the Reset button.
To clear the input field click the Clear button, to clear a individual
drawed function double click on the
function name in the list to the right of the applet or click on the
Cls
button to clear the whole screen.
To enter something into memory first click the M-> button and
click on either m1 or m2,
to clear the memory first click on MCls and then either m1
or m2
All Functions |
Calculator Controls
Eval - Evaluates an expression, the calculator
first tries to evaluate the expression,
if it fails then it tries to draw the expression.
Clear - Clears the input area.
PlotF - Plots a function of type y=f(x)
ZOut - Zooms out the current area with a factor of
x2.
To Zoom into an area, select the area with the mouse and release.
Reset - Reset the bounds to the original x:[-10,10] y:[-10,10]
Cls - Clears the whole drawing
area and all functions.
To clear an individual function double click on the function in
the list to the right of the applet.
M-> - Enters an expression or a value into memory, first click this button and then chose either m1 or m2
MCls - Clears the memory, first click this button and then
on either m1 or m2 to clear that memory.
Note that memory will be gone if you leave the page with the applet and
then return at a later point.
m1 - Memory 1
m2 - Memory 2
Operators and Functions
sqrt - sqrt of a value or expression.
sin - sin of a value or expression.
cos - cos of a value or expression.
tan - tan of a value or expression.
atan - atan of a value or expression.
acos - acos of a value or expression.
asin - asin of a value or expression.
acotan - acotan of a value or expression.
exp - The constant euler raised to a value or expression.
ln - The natural logarithm.
10log - The 10 logarithm of a value or expression.
fac - The faculty of a value or expression.
diff - Symbolically differentiates an expression of one variable
pi - The constant PI
euler - The Euler constant, base for the natural logarithm.
+ - Addition operator.
- - Subtraction operator.
* - Multiplication operator.
/ - Division operator.
^ - Raised
to operator.
The calculator also supports the following functions when entered through the keyboard:
sinh - Hyperbolic sine
cosh - Hyperbolic cosine
tanh - Hyperbolic tangens
abs - Absolute value of value or expression.
ceil
- Returns the smallest (closest to negative infinity)
value that is not less than the argument and is equal to
a mathematical integer.
floor - Returns
the largest (closest to positive infinity)
value that is not greater than the argument and is
equal to a mathematical integer.
sfac - Semifaculty of value or expression.
round - rounds the argument
to the closest mathematical integer.
Example: round( 3.4 ) = 3.0, round( 4.99 ) = 5.0 etc...
fpart - returns the decimalvalue of its argument
[base]log(..) - any logaritm. Example: 10log(10) = 1.0, exp(1)log(exp(1)) = 1.0
% - Modulo.
== - Equal, returns 1.0 if it's arguments are equal or 0.0 othervise.
!= - Not Equal, returns 1.0 if it's arguments are not equal or 0.0 othervise.
&& - And, returns 1.0 if both arguments evaluates to 1.0, or 0.0 othervise.
|| - Or, returns 1.0 if any of it's arguments evaluates to 1.0, or 0.0 othervise.
>
- Larger than, returns 1.0 if the value of the argument to the left is
larger
than the value of the argument to the right, or 0.0 othervise.
<
- Less than, returns 1.0 if the value of the argument to the left is less
than the value of the argument to the right, or 0.0 othervise.
>=
- Larger than or equal to, returns 1.0 if the value of the argument to
the left is larger
than or equal to the value of the argument to the right, or 0.0 othervise.
<=
- Less than or equal to, returns 1.0 if the value of the argument to the
left is less
than or equal to the value of the argument to the right, or 0.0 othervise.
!
- Not, returns 0.0 if it's argument evaluates to 1.0 and returns 1.0 if
it's argument evaluates to anything other than 1.0
