Remember back in your high school calculus class when you had to plot graphs of complicated functions on your graphing calculator? Admit it, even if you were like me and didn’t understand what exactly sin(x) even is, it was kind of cool and fun to watch each graph being generated and check out the final product. Archimy.com is essentially an online graphing function that works similarly to your calculator, except for that it offers more flexibility and ease of use in regards to specifying variables and parameters than your TI-83 might. With Archimy, you can define a graph by specifying the formula for the coordinates x,y,z. Not all of these variables need be used; if you want to exclude one or more simply set the domain at 0 (eg, z = 0). Commands are separated using parentheses, and dimensions can be specified as well to optimize the viewing window as well as maximum and minimum x and y values. Archimy provides a detailed list of accepted commands and further explains its syntax on its homepage. When you’re done entering in the function, Archimy graphs it for you in a new window much as your graphing calculator would.

In some instances, Archimy might be preferable to a graphing calculator, particularly in situations when a presentation is being given and a better visual is required on a projector than would be displayed by a graphing calculator – computer – cable combination. The graphs are colorful and incorporate shading for better perspective and discerning of dimensions and angles.

One feature that Archimy lacks that a standard graphing calculator possess is the ability to watch your graph being executed slowly, so that one can observe the movement of the graph through the different variable values.
