Re: [apple scitech] Grapher learning/documentation questions



Ah...that clears that up.  Thank you very much Martin!

Both work for me (but not with a range "n={0...5}", only with a fixed
value like "n=1".) In the first case, the so-called "buttons" are little
specks of dirt on top of the graphing area, and you have to guess or
wait for the tooltips to show up in order to know what they mean. The
"Settings button" is the rightmost one.

I see what you mean--I think the problem is that, by default, the buttons are overlapped by the interface for the graph below it, and you have to drag it down in order to see the full buttons. Hmm...not so good user interface design...

For example, let's say I want to create an animation. I want to see the effect of using different values of n on the equation

y = x^n

So, I create the parameter

n := {0 ... 5}

For me, the following works:

Write two lines:

n=1
y=x^n

This shows you one curve (a straight line). Then

- either select the line "n=1" and choose Equation -> Animate Parameter
- or choose Equation -> Create Animation
