Plots a function together with its derivative. First, change the function term int this text box. Second, click on "plot".

   return Math.cos(x)*p.Y();

var board = JXG.JSXGraph.initBoard('box', {boundingbox:[-5,8,8,-5], axis:true});

// Macro function plotter
function addCurve(board, func, atts) {
    var f = board.create('functiongraph', [func], atts);
    return f;
}
        
// Simplified plotting of function
function plot(func, atts) {
   if (atts==null) {
      return addCurve(board, func, {strokewidth:2});
   } else {
      return addCurve(board, func, atts);
   }    
}

// Free point
var p = board.create('point', [1,1], {style:6, name:'p'}); 

// Usage of the macro
function doIt() {
    eval(document.getElementById('input').value); 
}

function clearAll(board) {
    JXG.JSXGraph.freeBoard(board);
    board = JXG.JSXGraph.initBoard('box', {boundingbox:[-5,8,8,-5], axis:true});
    p = board.create('point', [3,-4], {style:6, name:'p'}); 
    return board;
}
