What is the Table View?

With

Table View you can...

generate a table of values in a specified range
show / hide the generated points in Graphics View
edit the function
edit the range of values

The

Table View is available for

Graphing and

CAS. Note: In the

Probability Calculator there is a Table Tab. This tab shows a static table and is only available for discrete distributions. Explore the table of values for functions by opening the

Table View. Follow the instructions to learn how to use the

Table View step by step.

3.		Select Table of values.
4.		A dialog opens where you can define Start value for x, End value for x and Step. Press OK to confirm your settings.
5.		The Table View opens automatically so you can see the values immediately.
6.		Go back to Algebra View, type into the Input Bar and press Enter. The function will be automatically labeled g(x) and displayed in the Graphics View.
