Do Graph Calculator Art

Boredom engenders creativity, and a long and tiresome lecture in class can be spiced up by creating your own graphic art on your graphing calculator. Amuse yourself without disrupting the class at large by creating a personal masterpiece on your calculator, providing a conversation piece in the halls between classes.

Instructions
1. Press the "Y=" button. Use the "Delete" button to clear any equations that are there. This ensures that you will have a clean pallet upon which to draw.

2. Press "2nd" followed by "Format." Select "AxesOff" and press "Enter." This removes the axes so you have a blank canvas.

3. Press "Graph," "2nd" and "Draw." Choose the drawing style you wish to use such as "Circles," "Lines" or free drawing in "Pen" mode.

4. Use the arrow keys and the "Enter" button to draw your desired line type. Repeat until your masterpiece is complete.


Tips & Warnings

- To save your picture, press "Draw" and press the "Right Arrow" button twice. Select the "StorePic" option to save your drawing.
