This is Function Plotter version 4.00.  This program is shareware.
There have been many improvements over version 3.01 including EGA
color support, windowing data, log plots, custom configuration of
startup, unlimited number of plotting points and much more.

Function plotter is useful for the following:

1) Quickly reviewing data in a linear or log format.  Data are in
   column format and can have up to 9 columns.  You can plot any column
   vs. any other column.

2) Entering function strings and converting to data.  These data can
   then be plotted or read out to a data file.

3) Use it as an educational tool.  Examine Taylor series, Fourier
   series and Chebyshev series approximations.  Look for roots of
   polynomials.  Look at functional behavior as you vary parameters.

4) Reading very dense data files and then examining detail using
   "exploded" views.

5) Use in the calculator mode as an intelligent formula calculator.
