CDF Sandbox

CDF stands for computable document format. It is under active development at Wolfram Research. A free plugin is required (100MB download). Currently the plugin is only available for Windows and MacOSX. An iPad plugin is being developed.

The following interactive tool shows clock #9 data. Nine timeseries datasets are available to view. If the timeseries box is selected the selected y series is shown against time and date. If xy is selected the y series is plotted against the x series selected. If histogram is selected a histogram of the y series is shown. Left selects the starting point to view data. If 'use span' is checked data is plotted starting with the left slider and continuing for a number of samples given by the span slider. If unchecked the right slider controls the end point. Points are joined with lines and the mesh control will show a marker for each actual data point.
