EasyPlot combines a graphical interface with technical plotting
capabilities in a package that's intended for every day use in
the lab, Spiral Software says. The company says EasyPlot's
intuitive interface makes computing a complex FFT as easy as
adjusting the range of an axis.
 
With EasyPlot, you present the data, and it plots it for you.
It can accept ASCII, .WK1, and .WR1 data files and
automatically plot them with easy to understand tic marks and
axis ranges. You can select from linear, log-log, contour, and
other popular graph types. The program lets you interact with
the data by zooming in and out of a graph, scrolling, and
placing the cross-hair view on a data point to get its
coordinate in real time.
 
EasyPlot also lets you transform data with any mathematical
equation that you specify. It will plot the new graph in a
different format for comparison.
 
The program runs on the IBM PC with 400K bytes of RAM.
 
Price: $269.
