This page discusses plotting formulae on Algebra.com. Go to the formula plotting portal for formula, math cartoon and diagram plotting help. You can also see many use examples and live practice with plotting formulas, graphs and cartoons. It is a very powerful system for helping to explain math to children.

Powers are entered using the ^ symbol: x^2 means x SQUARED. x^(y+2) means x to the power of (y+2).
The plus/minus symbol is entered as "+- ", note the SPACE after +-. SPACE is mandatory!
Subscripts are entered using the [ and ]: example: x[1,2] = a+-b

Simplifier cartoons (universal simplifier performing automatic simplification and showing cartoons), see Instructions and Examples.
Arithmetic cartoons (explaining addition etc) see Instructions and Examples
Greek letters, summation, integrals etc are entered using their common names. Examples
Math functions, see Supported math functions
Matrices, see Instructions and Examples.
