I want to use my ST to produce lab write-ups from my Physics classes.
However, I am not certain if the software that I require exists. I have
a Mega 4, mono monitor, and HP DeskJet.
My needs are basically three:
1: I need the ability to do graphs with error bars and
have one or both axes be logarithmic, and to have
the program do some type of curve fit to the data
2: Moderately complex mathematical expressions should
be possible.
3: Diagrams should be able to be imported. Preferably,
.GEM format, but .IMG or .P?3 would be marginally
acceptable.
Obviously, I need to be able to output to my DeskJet.
It would seem that my choices would be limited to TeX or Signum2
as the base of all this. Then I would need a scientific graphing/plotting
program (I don't know of any for the ST) that can produce output suitable
for importing into one of these programs. Or I could simply put diagrams
and graphs on separate pages to eliminate the need for importing. What
are TeX and Signum2 capable of importing? And what scientific graphing-
plotting programs exist for the ST? Any other comments?
Thanks,
