I am considering use flot.js to render the function f(x) = 1/x for 3 cases:
f(x) = 1/n ,
f(x) = n/x , and
f(x) = 1/x +n
I would like to have the student able to change n to see what happens so I will need to refresh the graph as well.
I have no clue how to render the function itself.
You have to fill an array with e.g. 100 values and then use that array to plot the graph. Something like this:
var f1array = [];
for (var i = 1; i <= 100; i++) {
f1array.push([0.1 * i, 1 / (0.1 * i)]);
}
$.plot('#placeholderdiv', [f1array]);
Use this as a starting point and come back if you have further questions.
Edit: fiddle example
