Instructions for Use - Grapher (04/16th/2014) : Introduction If you want to know everything about this outstanding plotter of mathematical 2D and 3D graphs with a "Help" that does not disclose a tenth of its capabilities, then do not hesitate to download this manual ! If you want to know if the bug number 6 (out of 33) exists in Curvus Pro X 1.3.2 and/or Grapher 1.1 and/or 2.0 and/or 2.1 and/or 2.2 and/or 2.3 and/or 2.5, or if a suitable workaround exists, then dive into the last chapter of this guide ! If the syntax of mathematical expressions used in these five applications gives you trouble, or if you do not understand why 3-2=1 but 3 -2=-6, then browse the chapter Expressions. Six very detailed and extensively illustrated lessons will gradually initiate you into Grapher, saving you many futile queries to a “Help“ section deficient in examples or illustrations and which quickly becomes less than helpful.
