| Simple Plot | Students can plot ordered pairs of numbers, either as a scatter plot or with the dots connected. |
| Graph Sketcher | Students can create graphs of functions by entering formulas -- similar to a graphing calculator. |
| Graphit | Students can graph functions and sets of ordered pairs on the same coordinate plane -- similar to a graphing calculator. |
