Cool Functions... can anyone add more?

Here are some really cool functions you can do on the graphing calculator here: http://www.mathsisfun.com/graph/function-grapher.php (Note that the variable needs to be x, and for the Polar sub-list, the "Polar" button needs to be hit.)

Cartesian (normal):
sin(x^(cos(x)+x))
x^(cos(x)) (If you zoom out, you may see a pattern develop.)
acos(sin(3x-sqrt(ex^2)+1))

Polar (hit "Polar"):
sin(x^(cos(x)+x)) (You may need to click on "Zoom In 2x" a few times to really see how cool this one is.)
floor(x^3)
x^(cos(x))
atan(x)
acos(sin(3x-sqrt(ex^2)+1))

Can anyone add more? Please?

Some good plots there, simron

acos(sin(3x-sqrt(ex^2)+1)) gets triangles!

Polar: acos(sin(3x-sqrt(ex^2)+1)) is amazing, too.

If you click "Link/Forum", you can copy-paste the plot including coords like this: Polar Plot of acos(sin(3x-sqrt(ex^2)+1))
