< The JaPlot Graphing Calculator >
JaPlot (/d͡ʒeɪplɒt/) is an open source graphing calculator written in C, some of it's main features are :
- The JaPlot shell environment
- Ability to add variables, constants, functions & more
- Graphing and calculating arbitrary equations
- Transparent usage of plugin functions (.dll)
- Plotting data from/to a file
- Script running
DISCLAIMER : JaPlot isn't a computing environment as it doesn't support conditional branching (..yet?)
Download
Binaries for JaPlot aren't available yet as it is incomplete and still under development
Building
JaPlot can be build from the source code using a modern compiler
On Windows
It is strongly recommended to use msys2 + Mingw64 for building on windows (as JaPlot is tested with it and it makes compiling other dependencies easier overall)
The dependencies for building on windows are :
SDL2
,SDL_gpu
(graphics)pthread-win32
(threads, comes installed with mingw64)dlfcn-win32
(dynamic loading for plugins)Dash
(data structure library, repo jacobsebek/dash)
After installing the dependencies, specify these environment variables :
SDL_CONFIG
- path to your sdl2-config file (usually in the SDL2bin
folder)DASH_PATH
- path to thedash
installation directory (the one containing thelib
andinclude
- folders)DLFCN_PATH
- path to thedlfcn-win32
library (the one containing thelib
andinclude folders
)
And finally, build using Makefile-windows
Notes :
Make sure that the SDL_gpu
include files are in the same directory as all other SDL2
files and that the library files are in the lib
directory of the SDL2
installation too (same structure as if on Linux)
The makefile is assuming you are using the precompiled version of SDL_gpu
, so it is looking for the file SDL_gpu.lib
, you can change this to -lSDL2_gpu
if you happen to have your own compiled archive
On Linux
Compiling on Linux is a lot easier than on windows The dependencies for building on Linux are :
SDL2
,SDL_gpu
(graphics)Dash
(data structure library, repo jacobsebek/dash)
After installing the dependencies, specify these environment variables :
SDL_CONFIG
- path to yoursdl2-config
file (usually in the SDL2bin
folder), defaulted to/usr/local/bin/sdl2-config
DASH_PATH
- path to the dash installation directory (the one containing thelib
andinclude
folders)
And finally, build using the Makefile
