COMPL is a graphing tool for the complex plane.

Compilation

COMPL requires the following dependencies to be installed:

• raylib (see Working on GNU Linux)
• GNU GCC
• GNU Make

Once dependencies have been met, make will compile the program, and make run will run.

What is the Complex Plane?

Before we understand what the complex plane is, we must first understand what a complex number is.

Complex Numbers

Try to take the square root of -1. You can't. However, mathematicians decided to call the result i, or imaginary number.

Complex Plane

The complex plane is just like a graph, however the X axis is known as the Real axis, and the Y axis is known as the Imaginary axis.

Basic COMPL Usage

Plotting Points

To plot a point on the grid, you left click on the space you want to place it on. In the top right corner, you should see a list of all your points.

Removing Points

To remove a point, hover the mouse over the point, and left-click the point. It will be removed from the list of points as well as being unrendered.

Moving the "Camera" Around

Use the arrow keys to move.

Keys	What it Does
Left, Right	Moves real axis left/right
Up, Down	Moves Imaginary axis up/down

Clearing All Points

Press C.
