Software for creating very basic graphs. Any suggestions?
Hi. I have a upcoming assignment where i need to sketch some very basic numberlines and show the union and intersections of different sets. I usually submit my work online and up to now it worked out very well because i only had algebra and used mathtype. Does anyone have any suggestions for software which i can use for creating graphs etc For windows? I have searched everywhere but can't seem to find what i'm looking for. I managed to draw the numberlines but there's no way to insert the correct ticmarks e.g <> not sure what it's called exactly but in roster notation it's written as e.g [8,0) or (4,6] Thanks a lot in advance

Hi,
Don't know exactly what you need.
But I would suggest geogebra: http://www.geogebra.org/cms/
See if that works for you.

Sorry if i was a bit confusing. Here is an example of 1 of my questions.
Suppose p=(-3,4)
and q:E:R:-4<x<0
sketch each of the sets
p,q
p"union"q
and p"intersection"q on seperate numberlines
I wasn't sure how to write this in LaTex so if it's still a bit unclear let me know and i'll attach a .gif image.
Also -4 in the set q must be less than or equal to. That's what i meant in my previous post with [
Thanks

Ok, try geogebra.
That may be good enough for you.
