Program that calculates the list of x and f(x) for a given function

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around finding an online program that can list function values (f(x)) and corresponding x values for given inputs. A suggestion is made to use Google Sheets, which is accessible for free with a Google account. Participants discuss how to navigate Google Sheets to create functions, highlighting the ease of use for mathematical functions like e^x. There is also mention of using Python for similar tasks, with references to online Python interpreters. The conversation emphasizes the practicality of spreadsheets for mathematical computations and the availability of various functions within Google Sheets.

Is there an online program that for a given function value and range, it lists the f(x) and x?
 
Technology news on Phys.org
Doesn't a spreadsheet do this, e.g. a spreadsheet on Google Drive is free just get a Google account.

What about a spreadsheet?

Hmm I never thought that..How can I do that ? using a function ?
 
How familiar are you with spreadsheets?

At the top of the page is the Google banner and on the right is an icon consisting of a 3x3 symbolic matrix. Click on this to get into Googles apps In the menu click on Drive . Click on My Drive button to access the Window Office like apps. Click on Sheet to open the spreadsheet. You can create most any function you want by selecting the Insert button and then the function button.

What's the context, i.e., why do you want to do this?

You've described using Python to solve some problems in recent threads. Is there a reason you don't just use Python? Note that there are some Python interpreters that you can access online, e.g. here, if this is somehow important.

oh I know that functions but I actually mean the mathematical functions like e^x etx .well yes I actually can write in python and I did it so I guess problem solved.

Did you click on more in the menu for the whole list of available functions like e^x which is actually exp(x).
