[xzyfer]

i am forwarding a challenge to anyone...
ive been trying to get help for months and submitted challenges to other flash forums so far noone has been able to do this..although everyone knows it can be done...

note:u will need to have atleast a yr11 maths knowledge..

the challenge is to create a movie to which will plot/graph cubic equations of the forms:
y=a(X+b)^3
y=a(X+b)^2(X-c)
y=(X-a)(X-b)(X-c)

there must be a user input....
and x and y axis'...

neone think they can do it...??

wouldn't be too difficult, just find a way to locate formulas in strings, I'll give it a try when I find some time

It sounds like the big challenge would be to parse the expressions, assuming those were given by the user.

This thread on Bit-101 has some links to some excellent sites on parsing mathematical expressions. You might find some good inspiration or information there.
