.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
\fBKmPlot\fP is a mathematical function plotter for KDE.
|
|
|
|
It has a powerful built-in parser. You can plot different functions
|
|
|
|
simultaneously and combine them to build new functions.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
KmPlot supports parametric functions and functions in polar
|
|
|
|
coordinates. Several grid modes are supported. Plots may be printed
|
|
|
|
with high precision in the correct scale.
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
KmPlot also provides some numerical and visual features, like
|
|
|
|
filling and calculating the area between the plot and the first axis,
|
|
|
|
finding maximum and minimum values,
|
|
|
|
changing function parameters dynamically and
|
|
|
|
plotting derivatives and integral functions.
