Efficient scatter plots
Example
Posted on April 15, 2020
Today, I want to show you a neat trick to create scatter plots with a large number of points. Of course, it is possible to use JSXGraph points, but this might be overkill and need too much resources. A more efficient approach is to use the JSXGraph curve object: For...
