T-Grapher, a graphing application

My newest project project is the T-Grapher series. Watch how the computer graphs whatever you want.
Past Version(s)

Version 0.0.1 - released, includes the basic equation option
Version 0.0.5 - updated. New feature - Line Graph
Version 0.0.6 - Space to restart, added music, made black background to have it stand out more

Current version

Version 0.0.7 - Added Bar graphs!

Re: T-Grapher, a graphing application

Are parabolas eventually going to be added?

What about sin, cos, tan, sec, csc, and cot graphing functionality?

I don't know what parabolas are, It already has sin, cos, and tan, and I have absolutely no idea what sec, csc, and cot are.

I like graphing!  I'll check out your project in a bit.

sec (full name: secant), csc (cosecant), cot (cotangent) are lesser-used trigonometric functions.  They are the reciprocals of the more common sin, cos, tan.

secant = 1 / cosine

cosecant = 1 / sine

cotangent = 1 / tangent

Wikipedia has a nice table summarizing them all over here

Parabolas are functions of the form  y = ax^2 + bx + c

Thanks for explaining it Paddle2See!

@Luke121 it seems like you can already use them, you just have to put in the 1/sinx to be cosecant. And if Parabolas are just this formula

Code:

y=ax^2+bx+c

You can replace the variables with numbers that you want and be like this

Code:

y=7*2*7*2+9*2+8

So I probably won't add those in since you can do it manually. But to help with using them, I am going to add parentheses in a few updates.

Re: T-Grapher, a graphing application

It's nice, but a bit basic.


Programming is an art...
Goodbye, Scratch. I am leaving because of the exams coming up at our school, though I'll check the forums once or twice a week.

Thanks! The reason that it's basic is because it's still in it's beta form. I made this topic to show my project and to get suggestions from people.

Hmmm, I know them as sin (sine) cos (cosine) and tan (tangent). The reciprocals to me are sin to the power of -1, cos to the power of -1 and tan to the power of -1. Probably because I'm English :P

I believe you're thinking of the inverse trigonometric functions.  sin-1(x) is also written arcsin(x) or asin(x) in Scratch.  The inverse trig functions "undo" trig normal trig functions, so sin-1(sin(x)) = x.  cosecant, secant, and cotangent are different.
