What exactly does it do?
Graph Sketcher lets you make elegant and precise 2D
graphs in seconds, simply by sketching what you want.
The graphs below each took less than 2 minutes to create: |

What DOESN'T it do?
Graph Sketcher does not attempt to be everything
but the kitchen
sink. In fact, that's the whole point. You could produce
all those pictures above with a general-purpose drawing program, except
that it would take you several
hours instead
of a few
minutes. Graph Sketcher is purposely
simple so that you can quickly find what you want. Meanwhile,
underground algorithms take care of all the messy details so you don't
even have to think about it. |

Cool, but I still don't know what it doesn't do.
Oh, right. For now at least, Graph Sketcher is not a
function graphing program (try Grapher in
Mac OS X Tiger). And
although it does have some convenient calculation abilities, it
is by
no means
a math or stat
package
(try Mathematica).
Finally, although it contains a mini spreadsheet, it is not Excel. Instead, Graph Sketcher combines just enough pieces from all of
these
worlds to let you make graphs fast and furiously.
Even better, unlike certain software products,
Graph Sketcher does not cause you to repeatedly
bash your head against your keyboard. In fact, in order to prevent that, Graph Sketcher has gone through
serious user interface testing -- the only way to
really find out how to make software intuitive to use. A preliminary usability report is available (if
you'd like some light reading). |
