< 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?)}

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 SDL2 bin folder)
• DASH_PATH - path to the dash installation directory (the one containing the lib and include - folders)
• DLFCN_PATH - path to the dlfcn-win32 library (the one containing the lib and include 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 your sdl2-config file (usually in the SDL2 bin folder), defaulted to /usr/local/bin/sdl2-config
• DASH_PATH - path to the dash installation directory (the one containing the lib and include folders)

And finally, build using the Makefile
