Is there such software, that I can use the PC for graphing?

In summary, the conversation discusses different options for graphing complex equations, including using a TI-89 calculator, a PC program called Gnuplot, and another program called Maxima. The participants also mention difficulties with finding a Windows version of Gnuplot and a specific feature in Maxima. They also provide a link to download the binary for Gnuplot.

Like, there are somethings that take too long to graph on ti-89, especially with accuracy. I would like to know how to use my PC to graph.

Thank you.

Gnuplot is free, easy and can plot 2d and 3d functions as well as data.
You could also use excel

I downloaded it, but only the source code. Can't find a windows-dumbed down .exe installation file. I don't have much time to compile and all that :(

I just installed Maxima. I can't find the option to graph polar equations, just regular, parametric, and discrete.
