Ask HN: How to learn graph plots of math functions

1 pointsby hhimanshuover 13 years ago
I really don't know how to we say that a log function would look like this or polynomial function would look like this.<p>I know that if I have like X + Y = c, I can draw straight line by taking values of X and evaluating Y.<p>how to I learn graph plots for other math function(log, exponential, sine, cos etc) or polynomial of n degrees

You can just plug numbers into the function and plot them by hand.<p>Or you can type the function into <a href="http://www.wolframalpha.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.wolframalpha.com/</a> and it will show you the graph.
