625.0. "<><><> MATHPLOT, a mathematical function PLOTter <><><>" by THEBUS::KOSTAS (Wisdom is the child of experience.) Wed Dec 10 1986 12:25

    Hello,
    
         This is to inform you that the tool MATHPLOT is now available
    from the toolshed or from thebus::pin:[kostas.userlib]mathplotkit.com.
    MATHPLOT allows the specification of mathematical formulas and the
    the plotting of these using line or solid styles on anyone of the
    three windows. MATHPLOT supports only REGIS graphics and it is menu
    driven.

  Some more info . . .
    
  MATHPLOT is a menu driven mathematical formula plotter which uses 
  Regis Graphics. The mathematical functions supported are:

        abs, sqrt, cubrt, ln, exp, tento, sin, cos, tan. 

  The menu line is:

     MATHPLOT: W)indow F)ormula L)ine S)olid A)xes fR)ame C)lear V)ars H)elp Q :

  and the action of the options:

   W)indow   allows the selection of a window. a, b, and c available. 
   F)ormula  allows the specification of a mathematical formula to 
             be plotted on the selected window using any style. 
             functions supported: 
                abs, sqrt, cubrt, ln, exp, tento, sin, cos, tan. 
   L)ine     will plot a given function on the selected window 
             using a line style plot. 
   S)olid    will plot a given function on the selected window 
             using a solid style plot (i.e. will fill the area under 
             the curve. 
   A)xes     will plot the x and y axes on the selected window. 
   fR)ame    will place a frame on the selected window. 
   C)lear    will clear the screen. 
   V)ars     will allow to assign values to the three varaibales
             v, w, and z which can be used in the formula. 
   H)elp, ?  will display this help page. 
   Q)uit     will exit this program. 

   Enjoy,

625.2meta symbols for the MATHPLOT utilityTHEBUS::KOSTASWisdom is the child of experience.Thu Dec 11 1986 10:0845
META SYMBOLS for the MATHPLOT utility.

META-SYMBOLS: The following symbols are used to specify the syntax,
              and are not themselves part of the expressions.

     ::=    means  "is defined as".
      |     separates alternative items of which one must be used
   { and }  surround an item which occurs zero or more times
   [ and ]  surround an optional item which occurs at most once
   < and >  surround the description of an item, which is subsequently defined
   otherwise, all symbols are written as indicated.

<EXPRESSION> ::= [<adding operator>] <term> {<adding operator> <term>}

<adding operator> ::= + | -

<term> ::= <factor> {[<multiplying operator>] <factor> }
       NOTE: when <multiplying operator> is omitted, 
             multiplication is implied.

<multiplying operator> ::=  * | / | mod

<factor> ::= <value> | <value> ^ <value>

<value> ::= X | <unsigned constant> | <function designator> | (<EXPRESSION>)

<unsigned constant> ::= <real> | pi | e

<function designator> ::= <function name> (<EXPRESSION>)

<function name> ::=  Abs | Sqrt | Ln | Exp | Sin | Cos | Tan

<real> ::=  <integer part> [.] | <fraction part> 
            | <integer part> <fraction part>

<integer part> ::= <digit> {<digit>}

<fraction part> ::= .<digit> {<digit>}

<digit> ::= 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9

625.4Motif version of MathPlot available ...COGITO::KOSTASHe is great who confers the most benefits.Wed May 27 1992 11:0510
    Hello,
    
      I have modified Mathplot to work with Motif sometime ago. If you are
    interested the .exe, .obj, and .com files are in:
    
       COGITO::$1$DUA203:[kostas.userlib]xmathplot.*
