From the Graph screen, you can:
¦
Display the coordinates of any pixel by using the free-moving
cursor, or of a plotted point by tracing a sequence.
¦ Use the
„
Zoom
toolbar menu to zoom in or out on a portion of
the graph.
¦ Use the
‡
Math
toolbar menu to evaluate a sequence. Only
1:Value
is available for sequences.
¦ Plot sequences on Time (the default), Web, or Custom axes.
Overview of Steps in Graphing Sequences
To graph sequences, use the same general steps used for y(x)
functions as described in Chapter 6: Basic Function Graphing.
Any differences are described on the following pages.

Tip: You can also evaluate
a sequence while tracing.
Simply enter the n value
directly from the keyboard.
Set Graph mode (

to
SEQUENCE
.
Also set Angle mode,
if necessary.
Define sequences and,
if needed, initial values
on Y= Editor (
