Coordinate plane in mathematica

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on graphing techniques in Mathematica, specifically how to plot single points and draw a complete coordinate plane with boxes. Users can utilize various Plot functions found in the Mathematica documentation to achieve this. Key suggestions include plotting horizontal and vertical lines in blue with adjustable point radius and line thickness, while also considering the exclusion of certain plot elements by adjusting axis limits. The discussion emphasizes the versatility of the Plot command, which offers numerous options for customization.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with Mathematica software
  • Understanding of the Plot function in Mathematica
  • Basic knowledge of coordinate systems
  • Experience with graphical customization options in Mathematica
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore the Mathematica documentation on the Plot command
  • Learn how to customize plot aesthetics, including color and line thickness
  • Research methods for plotting multiple functions on the same graph in Mathematica
  • Investigate techniques for adjusting axis limits in Mathematica plots
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for Mathematica users, educators, and students who are interested in graphing techniques and enhancing their visualization skills within the software.

How can I graph single points on the graph in Mathematica? Or draw whole coordinate plane, with *boxes*, like this one: (and then plot)

Can't find the informations in the tutorial I'm using presently,
Thanks,

I found the mathematica documentation on the various Plot functions to have a lot of useful information.

I think it's possible to plot multiple things on the same graph. So, one thing you could do is to plot each of those horizontal and vertical lines with a blue color and small point radius (or maybe you want a small line thickness?). And then on the same drawing object (or whatever it's called), you then plot the thing you actually want to plot.
 
If you go into the help browser and type in "plot" you will get the info for the plot command. There are probably 30 or so options for plots. I would have to fool around with it because I have not tried it myself. You would definitely have to plot some kind of function, but I think you could adjust the axes limits to exclude the plot.
