# Function Plot Demo

This demonstration plots the graph of a function of the form $$y = f(x)$$.

You can change the following inputs in the demonstration.

• The function $$f(x)$$ can be entered in a box.
• The interval in the $$x$$-axis on which the function is plotted can be changed by sliders.
• The interval in the $$y$$-axis which is visible can be changed by sliders.
• The aspect ratio can be changed from $$1$$ (default) to automatic by a check box.
