plots are usually different than display range (see page

24-3).

HI:

Enter the largest value of the independent variable
that you want

plotted.

Plotting range can be different

than display range (see page 24-3).

DEPND:

Enter the dependent (or second independent) variable.
It will be plotted on the vertical axis.

Lu:

Enter the smallest value of the dependent variable

that you want

plotted.

HI!

Enter the largest value of the dependent variable that
you want

plotted.

STEP:

This determines the

resolution

of the plot. It is the

horizontal distance (in units or pixels—see next field)
between two plotted points. The default step-size for

Truth is an interval equal to 1 pixel.

FTKELS

When checked, the step-size is interpreted to represent

pixels. When unchecked (default) the step-size is
interpreted to represent units.

HIKES

See the Function plot type.

H-TICK

Special Notes

■ Unless otherwise specified, every pixel in the display is evaluated.

For a full-size display, this means

EQ

must be evaluated 8,384 times

(compared to 131 times for the average function plot). You can

speed up the plot by specifying a smaller

x

and

y

plotting range

(see Example 2 below).
