Funtool - Function Calculator: Syntax

funtool is a visual function calculator that allows users to define, manipulate, and graph functions of one variable. It displays two default functions, f(x)=x and g(x)=1, over the domain [-2π, 2π]. Users can save, retrieve, combine, and transform the functions using options in the control panel, such as taking derivatives or integrals, adding a constant, and graphing combinations of f and g. The calculator also includes a function memory to store functions for later use.

funtool - Function calculator

Syntax
funtool

Description
funtool is a visual function calculator that manipulates and displays functions of one variable.
At the click of a button, for example, funtool draws a graph representing the sum, product,
difference, or ratio of two functions that you specify. funtool includes a function memory that
allows you to store functions for later retrieval.

At startup, funtool displays graphs of a pair of functions, f(x) = x and g(x) = 1. The graphs
plot the functions over the domain [-2*pi, 2*pi]. funtool also displays a control panel that
lets you save, retrieve, redefine, combine, and transform f and g.

Text Fields

The top of the control panel contains a group of editable text fields.

f= Displays a symbolic expression representing f. Edit this field to redefine f.


g Displays a symbolic expression representing g. Edit this field to redefine g.
=
x Displays the domain used to plot f and g. Edit this field to specify a different domain.
=
a Displays a constant factor used to modify f (see button descriptions in the next section). Edit
= this field to change the value of the constant factor.

funtool redraws f and g to reflect any changes you make to the contents of the control panel's
text fields.

Control Buttons

The bottom part of the control panel contains an array of buttons that transform f and perform
other operations.

The first row of control buttons replaces f with various transformations of f.

df/dx Derivative of f
int f Integral of f
simple Simplified form of f, if possible
f
num f Numerator of f
den f Denominator of f
1/f Reciprocal of f
finv Inverse of f

The operators intf and finv may fail if the corresponding symbolic expressions do not exist in
closed form.

The second row of buttons translates and scales f and the domain of f by a constant factor. To
specify the factor, enter its value in the field labeled a= on the calculator control panel. The
operations are

f+a Replaces f(x) by f(x) + a.


f-a Replaces f(x) by f(x) - a.
f*a Replaces f(x) by f(x) * a.
f/a Replaces f(x) by f(x) / a.
f^a Replaces f(x) by f(x) ^ a.
f(x+a Replaces f(x) by f(x + a).
)
f(x*a) Replaces f(x) by f(x * a).

The first four buttons of the third row replace f with a combination of f and g.

f+ Replaces f(x) by f(x) + g(x).


g
f-g Replaces f(x) by f(x)-g(x).
f*g Replaces f(x) by f(x) * g(x).
f/g Replaces f(x) by f(x) / g(x).

The remaining buttons on the third row interchange f and g.

g=f Replaces g with f.


swa Replaces f with g and g with f.
p

The first three buttons in the fourth row allow you to store and retrieve functions from the
calculator's function memory.

Insert Adds f to the end of the list of stored functions.


Cycle Replaces f with the next item on the function list.
Delet Deletes f from the list of stored functions.
e

The other four buttons on the fourth row perform miscellaneous functions:

Reset Resets the calculator to its initial state.


Help Displays the online help for the calculator.
Dem Runs a short demo of the calculator.
o
Close Closes the calculato
