Plotting graphs with PGFplots (LaTeX and Tikz)

Plotting graphs with PGFplots (LaTeX and Tikz)

I guess many of you might need to plot functions or data once. So I've made one example that shows much of the features you might need: You can see how to change the axis' from normal linear scale to logarithmic scale. Some axis-manipulations were used. I have used a … Read More »

How to draw a finite-state machine

Finite-state machines are necessary to show that some problems are computable (or not). As I am currently learning something about them, I would like to be able to plot those finite automatons automatically. I will use graphviz. Nondeterministic finite-state machine Nondeterministic finite-state machine This image is created from a gv-file … Read More »
