Aplets and their views

Aplet views

This section examines the options and functionality of the three main views for the Function, Polar, Parametric, and Sequence aplets: Symbolic, Plot, and Numeric views.

About the Symbolic view

The Symbolic view is the defining view for the Function, Parametric, Polar, and Sequence aplets. The other views are derived from the symbolic expression.

You can create up to 10 different definitions for each Function, Parametric, Polar, and Sequence aplet. You can graph any of the relations (in the same aplet) simultaneously by selecting them.

Defining an expression (Symbolic view)

Choose the aplet from the Aplet Library.
