Math curve charts
A math curve chart plots mathematical equation curves that are based on user-entered
expressions.
Creating a simple math curve chart
- In the Chart Type section, click the Math curve
icon.
The canvas updates to display a math curve chart template.
- Enter a starting value for the X-axis in the X value starts from field.
- Enter an ending value for the X-axis in the X value ends with field.
- Enter an equation that plots the graph curve in the
equations field. Click Add another column to include
more equations.Each equation treats
x
as an independent variable. The following equations are allowed.+, -, *, /, %, and ^
abs(x)
ceil(x)
floor(x)
log(x)
max(a,b,c...)
min(a,b,c...)
random()
round(x)
sqrt(x)
sin
cos
exp
tan
atan
atan2
asin
acos
- Click the Save visualization in the project control. Select Create a new asset or Append to existing asset. Provide a Visualization asset name, an optional description, and a chart name.
- Click Apply to save the visualization to the project. The new visualization asset is now available on the Assets tab.
