Inequality Grapher

Made this (repurposed the Function Grapher): Inequality Grapher

How is it?

Re: Inequality Grapher

Hi MIF;

Look like a really nice grapher. Very good.

How about adding the capability for 1 or 2 more equations.

Re: Inequality Grapher

Hi MathsIsFun,

The Inequality Grapher works very well!

Remarkable page!

Re: Inequality Grapher

Thanks Guys!

It should be possible to add more equations, I just need to do some tricky coding is all.

Hi;

When you succeed it will be easy to create a graphic linear programming solver.

Re: Inequality Grapher

Almost there ... is 3 enough? 4?

Re: Inequality Grapher

Hi MIF;

I was thinking of 4. If 4 is possible then 4 is good.

Re: Inequality Grapher

4? You want 4? I think 4 is possible. 4 should definitely be possible. I will try for 4.

Hi MIF;

4 would be good.

This applet is really good. Never seen such a web resource before

Re: Inequality Grapher

4? Was it 4 you wanted? Better than 4, I give you n: Inequality Grapher

(Use the +/- buttons below the y= ... and do a refresh if you can't see them.)

Hopefully I haven't wrecked it in the process, but I am sure you will all let me know if it still works nicely

Re: Inequality Grapher

Axiom:More is better.

n is greater than 4 when n>4. This can be proved by induction. So, n is better than 4 when n>4. I am happy.

Worked on a whole bunch of linear programming problems and obviously could work on quadratic programming too.

Future suggestions:

How about showing the coordinates of the feasible points?
Depending on how you solved the problem this could be a hanger or it could be difficult.

All in all, very good work!

Re: Inequality Grapher

Love the screenshot!

Points: I can't think of a point-finding algorithm. But you can use the "Points" button and zoom in for more accuracy.
