Name: Implicit function sketcher Models: fx-4000P and above Size: 122 bytes Version: 1.0 Author: Lupus Yonderboy E-mail: lupusy@afrodita.rcub.bg.ac.yu URL: http://www.rcub.bg.ac.yu/~lupusy/ Description: This program will try to plot function given in the implicit form, f(x,y). Program is called sketcher, not plotter, becouse it really only sketches function. Graphs can be very rough and usually will need a lot of time to plot, like 1-3 minutes, depending on the step value. Usage: -X, X, -Y, and Y define area in which function will be ploted (Xmin, Xmax, Ymin and Ymax), Scale (J variable) is scale used in coordinate system, and Step (E) is how accurate program will try to be when plotting. Optimal step value veries depending on function given, and is between 0.1 (circles and ellipses) and 0.2 - 0.3 (parabolla, hyperbolla...) or even 0.5 - 0.6 for very large plots ('large' in the terms of -X, X, -Y, Y range - larger range == more time needed for plotting). is the name of your program that holds function you are plotting. Function is given in the form of, eg: X^2 + Y^2 - 4 (circle with the centre in 0,0 and half radius of 2) Example: Lets draw example from the above: X^2 + Y^2 = 4 Transfrorm it to X^2 + Y^2 - 4 = 0 and store X^2 + Y^2 - 4 in your program. Now, since you know that this is a circle, and can see its param's, use the range of -2.1, 2.1, -2,1, 2,1, and set E=0.1. Experiment a bit with the E value and you will get the idea... Now, this was easy, but how to know to what values to set range when func. is not in such 'clean' form? You will need to experiment some more :)
