[nabs-l] Graphing and plotting coordinates accessibility oncomputer

[Humberto Avila]

Hello there.

Does that free online graphing calculator you mention  from NASA have the
ability to somehow copy the graph you graphed and paste it into another
program like Word? Or can I at least download the immage of my calculated
graph to my computer and insert it as an object in Word or so?

Hello,
There are a couple of options here.  First, there is the Audio Graphing
Calculator from View plus.  It does cost $299.00 though.  Just google it and
it should be fairly easy to find.  There is also MathTrax.  this is a free
online graphing calculator that is accessible.  It was developed by NASA.
Here is the link for it:

Hope this helps,
Greg Wocher
