Famous Curves (to be graphed)
 

famous curves

This is a site that has pictures of various curves on graphs and the formulas that express them.

I'm posting it in OOT rather than the math forum because it's a mixture of art and science (due to the graphical nature of the pages and brief nature of the description for each curve).

Very cool stuff. I found this after AdamL sent me something on the Babylonian number system.

Here's an example of one of the curve pages:
Limacon of Pascal

Enjoy,

this is a picture (the Ai(x) curve) of one of my favorite functions that is a decaying exponential greater than zero and oscillatory less than zero.
