Could anyone advise me on how I can operate in 3D mode? When I attempt to enter co0ordinates as shown in the help files,"you enter this," all attempts are...
... If you can attach a file or send it to me, it would a lot easier to zero in on the problem. Are you sure you have GC 3.5? To find out, select "About...
... Were you trying to graph this in 3D? The problem with that is that you have no y variables in the equations. If you put one in, even if multiplied by...
... You have to enter "=" and then another 3-vector (Math/3-Vector), and then fill in the fields of that 3-vector with the function you want to plot. For...
You can always draw the associated field lines for a vector function by just forming the related ordinary differential equation by taking the "Total...
Although you can't do field lines for 3D vector fields in GC 3.5, you can add a surface from which to draw the arrows. The surface could be movable, allowing...
Here's a vector field with the same animated y-term added to each component. You can drag the mouse in the graph to see the field line going through that...

The charges and radii of the spheres are adjustable via sliders. The "n" animation button controls the distance--Click the arrow to animate. The yellow arrows...
Here's an inverse-square force field, such as you might see from an electrically charged sphere. I've adjusted the resolutions of the surface and of the vector...
I'm trying to find a way to not have arrows plotted with the circles, so that on the whole the arrows will be longer so that we can see the vector summation at...
Although the vectors are getting added correctly, the blue arrows as shown aren't the correct length. I'm still not sure how to fix this. I think the problem...
At least in this simple case, the parallelogram addition of the vectors is represented correctly. I have to have both circles the same size, or it's off:...
By using an "if" statement on of its arguments, we can make the vector function as a whole undefined inside of a certain distance of the . This ensures that GC...
It looks like by adjusting the relative size of the "clipping circles", the vector parallelograms can be made to come out right. If I can figure out the...
Hi List, Regarding the click and drag math program I mentioned last week I just wanted to let you know that I've put a couple videos on my website in a flash...
Hi, can an ignoramus join and ask some stupid questions? Don’t know much about arithmetic, and maths is something from another planet to me. My brain...

Hello Christopher, To me, not being a mathematician nor having the kind of inner wiring to be one, anything above, more complex than, basic arithmetic is an...
Here's a graphical demonstration that the inverse of the z = exp(x+y) is z = ln(x+y). I put everthing in the gray box in order to show how the odd shapes of...

Sorry, I accidentally uploaded a file made by the new GC4 under development. My mistake, it should have gone to the mailing list for GC4 development. There...

Here's a file that can be used as a template for any time you want the x-axis to be labeled in degrees. I had to use custom axes and labels, since GC's scales...
Below, I've spaced the dashes better, in synch with the trig function period. Trying to get some insight into why the minima and maxima of the slanted sine...
