§ 5: Data Sets and Graphing on the WWW


Plotting a Data Set

You may present to your readers a data set and its plot, either in 2D or 3D, and your users may interact with the data by changing the data entries, with the graph automatically updating itself.

You may add data information by clicking on the last entry in the data table, and keystroke: ; to get a new row for entry.

Go ahead and experiment with this interactive: change some of the data inputs to see how the graph is affected.

Interpolated Function to a Data Set

Along with the plot of your data set, MathView can present the lineplot function of the data set, and the interpolated function plot.

In the interactive to the left, we have a data set, plotted with its lineplot in black, and also with its interpolated function presented in red.

Go ahead and experiment with this interactive: change some of the data inputs to see how the graph is affected. (The interpolated function cannot be changed in this version of MathView.)

Multiple Data Set Plots

In this interactive we have three data sets plots, each in a different color.

Go ahead and experiment with this interactive: change some of the data inputs to see how the graph is affected.

3D Data Sets and Line-Connect Functions

You may also plot your 3D numerical information in MathView.

In this interactive, we have two data sets, one with its Line-Connect Plot. You may author a 3D interpolated functions to this dataset, but it is not shown here.

Go ahead and experiment with this interactive: change some of the data inputs to see how the graph is affected. (The interpolated function cannot be changed in this version of MathView.)
