// This is a simple but rather interesting program that graphs equations.
// You enter equations in terms of x and y, something like one of the
// following:
//
//  y = sin[x]
//
//  x^2 + y^2 = 81
//
//  y cos[x] = x sin[y]
// 
lasteq = ""

{
   lasteq = func
   func =~ %s/=/ PEQ /            // Replace = with possibly equals
   expr = parseToExpression[func]
   
   g = new graphics
   
   xsteps = 1024
   xmin = -10
   xmax = 10
   xstep = (xmax-xmin) / xsteps

   ysteps = 1024
   ymin = -10
   ymax = 10
   ystep = (ymax-ymin) / ysteps
