Does VB.net have anything built in for graphing functions? Linear, quadratic, cubic, log, and absolute value functions would be my main needs. I would want to display the functions on a graph whose x- and y-axes both go from -10 to +10, with grid lines.
View 1 RepliesWhat I am trying to do is have a class where the functions of the same name are both instance functions and shared functions.
Public Shared Function Get...(byval xx as xx)
and
Public Function Get...
The Public Function uses a Property xx created in the constructor, whereas the Shared Function has the parameters (byval xx as xx).
I currently have an app that records several temperatures then logs them to a csv file every minute. I am thinking about adding some sort of graphing capability. Which direction should I look to accomplish this? I did a few searches but for some reason it wasnt pulling anything realavent up. Eventually I would want to have it autoscale based on max and min temps, as well as export the graph to a GIF to JPG. Need to figure out the plain graph first...
View 3 RepliesI had an assignment that I had done, which has been turned in, I was able to get it to graph, but it when it reaches the right side of the screen it drops off, when it is is adjusted using the velleman controls it jumps back up, hw would I fix this.
Here are the instructon for the assignment:
Write a program tat rads two analog inputs from a velleman board and plots the values on a rotating graph. The number of value plotted horizontally should be specified in a text box. Label the graphs vertical values in at least three places. Print the current voltage reading for each input in it's own lable. The graph should auto scale to fille the graph vertically and horizontally.
The two things that I couldn't get to work is the graph drops off the chart and I was unable to place the vertical values in three places.

I am trying to create a graph that changes every second and just shows a 3 second history. In my head it would make sense to tie it into the T variable (Time in seconds), so I have form1 outputting T to a text box on form2 and then everytime that textbox changes it graphs the new chart.
The reason I am doing the step ladder approach is because I wanted the numbers to appear under the points as they travel. does this make any sense at all, or am I completely off base?

I recently aqquired VB 2010 Express but have limited programming experience.I am looking for sample code and/or literature which will show me how to plot a Y=f(X) curve - for example code which will plot a straight line, a parabola, etc.I need it as a template from which I can learn about how to build such a graphing program and then tailor one to my needs.
View 3 RepliesI have a program that is supposed to display a line chart of some values Im reading in from an XML sheet. The function that reads the data into arrays works fine. When I try to graph the values, all I get is a flat line.
View 15 RepliesI have a graph that shows the balance of any number of individuals' accounts over time. The data is taken from a SQL datatable that contains the Individual's ID, Date&Time, and Account Balance.
The account balances of different individuals are not necessarily recorded at the same times. So for person1 I may have:
11/24/10 10:32:43 am - $150
11/24/10 1:47:13 pm - $180
11/24/10 5:15:34 pm - $140
[Code].....
So I want to graph the total between these two individuals, but the 'x-value' of their data points don't match up, so I can't simply add up the 'y-values' of corresponding points.
If I wanted to plot points showing the total between accounts, what should I do to achieve this? I would like this to work for not only 2, but any number of individuals.
The first thing I've decided is that I need to set an interval at which the total will be collected: every 10 min, every 1 hour, etc.
If I supply a date/time value as a parameter, how would I retrieve the most recent balance entry from each individual?
I am working on a programing project for my college class. The program is working fine except when it graphs the data on the panel it flickers and doesn't always do it smoothly. I'm sure there are more efficent ways of doing this, but this is what my class specifically wants. Also, it must run on the timer otherwise I would have made it calculate without delay. Here is the

1) Is it possible to access the Excel mathematical functions without actually opening Excel?
I was thinking of through a DLL WinAPI call or maybe a delegate function or smaller program?
2) Does anyone know of a MS link or area that gives instruction on "how to" use every function of every Windows DLL at all?
Or for all those that Microsoft have chosen to document online at least.
I am trying to write a thread safe application that contains 3 threads : -
1 - Data acquisition and decoding
2- Data graphing
3 - FFT and filtering
Thread 1 is collecting bytes from the serial port and converting them int integers (so taking two bytes) after is has captured 64 Bytes and converted into 32 integers, it then needs to pass the array to the graphing thread.
The graphing thread then plots the data and waits for more data.
Thread 3 also waits until thread one has collected 2023 integers and takes these and performs some FFT calculations (which take time).
My question is how do i share the arrays between the three threads without deadlocking the program? as the serial thread will be flying around reasonable fast (1000 bytes per second) so it will synclock onto the shared buffers for most of the time.
Originally i was going to use two synchronised queues, so when thread 1 has collected 32 bytes it queues the data into the graph queue, and once it has collected 2023 it queues the data into the FFT queue.
Then thread 2 and 3 can simple dequeue the data.
However using queues has the overhead of casting the data in and out, and as i know the data type i was planning on using two arrays :-
Dim GraphArray() as ushort
Dim FFTArray() as ushort
Then Thread 1 adds data to each thread, and thread 2 and 3 simple wait until the correct amount of data is available before removing the data. my question is there an array type that allows me to remove x amount of data from an array?
Because i cannot do this easily with the ararys defined as above (GraphArray, FFTArray), as i was planning on making them 1mByte and allowing thread 1 to fill them Knowing they should never overflow and then let thread 2 and 3 remove x amout of bytes at a time unless there is a better way of doing it
While converting types, I have found myself using both VB functions and BCL Convert.To* methods.
E.g.)
Cstr() vs. Convert.ToString()
CInt() vs. Convert.ToInt32()
CDbl() vs. Convert.ToInt64()
etc...
Are there any subtle differences that should be noted?
Is there a way to see exactly what the functions are doing. What i mean is there a way to see the class? I know what it does, i just want to know the code.
For example the function: Membership.FindUsersByName()
I have a database that has alarms, times/dates of the alarms, etc. What I am wanting to do is somehow graph the times these alarms come in so I can see where the peak times are for certain alarm types (fire, burglar, communication trouble, etc)

I'm redoing a program for my company and my boss wanted me to created the entire thing through functions...
For the task I wanted to know is it possible to have functions within functions?
Sort of like in C where we would have nested structures?
Its a FILE I/O, with robot commands, moves and verifications....
So I would find the line in an excel spreadsheet where it moves, the coordinate, put it into an array.
Take the actual results store them into a two dimensional array...etc, etc....
Another function would eventually compare the results with the moves, and within a tolerance.
When you refrence a Function like this one:[code]You may want to be able to get more out of that, like this.[code]So how would I be able to add subs or functions onto a sub or function like that?
View 4 RepliesI have made quite a good library for calculating Math problems like Quadratic Equations and many other. Now I met a friend, and hes programming a little in VB, and we were thinking if it is possible to import my functions from C++ to his code, so he can call them, when they are needed, so we can make a calculator? How can we do that?
Edit: My friend is using VB.net
Edit: My library is organized in free functions.
I am not sure if i am using these in the correct manner. Basically i have an app that downloads a file from an ftp server (i am kinda cheating cos i am using chilkat). Now if i put the code directly in the form i can get it to do a progressbar.value = ... in it['s own sub.What i decided to do was stick my ftp download parts into a dll i created. Created a function within the dll and i have a return on that which returns the message 'file downloaded' or 'no file to download'. But can i return a value to update the progress bar as it goes when the code is contained in a dll? Or am i totally missing the point and how to use dlls?
