Abstract
Various systems and methods for equation graphing are disclosed herein. For example, some embodiments of the present invention provide methods for graphing equations in a substantially real time environment. Such methods include receiving a first equation and a second equation, and parsing the equations such that they are each formatted in a common format. In addition, the first parsed equation is reduced to one or more first equation shapes that provide a graphical representation of the first equation. A determination is made abut whether a real time control has been satisfied. Where the real time control has been satisfied, the first equation shapes are painted to a display prior to reduction of the second parsed equation to one or more second equation shapes.
