graphing question

[krishna830]

hi guys, i have made the basis of my calculator with the help of u guys but i have to move on to the basis of my calculator, the graphs. i no i need to rearrange a form with a new scale, but i have no clue on how to actually make a graph. i plan to make graphs on:
1. y=x^2
2. y= sqr(x)
3. y=|x| (absolute value)
4. x^2 + y^2 = 1 (circle with 1 radius)

i have a feeling i need to use arrays to draw a series of dots, but i have no idea on how to get through this. ne1 with ne suggestions is greatly appreciated. THANKS!! :mike:

Besides suggestion made by Armbruster, you can consider the use of MSChart Component. There are plenty of examples available from world wide web.

so wat is that, like a program or a component of VB. do i need to dload nething?

why don't you do your home work and then may be if you have a problem you can come here. DONT JUST COPY PEOPLES PROGRAMS. THIS IS A PROJECT. DONT USE PEOPLES STUFF.

It is a standard VB component that you can find on the components list.

Goggle Search On MsChart

maybe u shud stop meddling in other ppls business. i came here asking for help and i happened to get a very nice example. i have used it as reference. i needed a head start, not a copying tool. y dont u think before u type alright.

how wud u make sin, cos and tan graphs? wud i have to make many semi circkes, or is there another easier way. thanks

[dglienna]

sine and cosine can be used to make circles, but vb has circles built in. google sine and cosine, and I'm sure you will find lots of examples. if you have something specific, post the question. functions aren't hard to graph.

[Armbruster]

krishna830, just write the functions in VB as you would if you were writing them on paper . . . I added a couple more examples for you. It really isn't that hard. Just give it a shot and post a question if you run into any problems.
