In a blog post on
the Windows Blog, Microsoft announces that it's rolling out a graphing mode for the Windows Calculator. This feature lets you plot and analyze graphs.
Microsoft says you must have the Windows 10 May 2020 update and the latest version of Windows Calculator to access this feature. I'm not sure if you need to manually update Calculator via the Windows Store, or whether the app gets updated automatically.
Key features:
Plot one or more equations on the graph. Enter multiple equations so that you can compare plots against each other and see interactions between the lines.
Add equations with variables. If you enter equations with variables (e.g., y = mx + b), you’ll be able to update the value of those variables to see the changes live on the graph.
Analyze the graph. Trace plots with your mouse or keyboard and analyze equations to help identify key graph features, like the x- and y-intercepts.
