AsciiGraph: Plot Equations in Your Terminal

We've released AsciiGraph, a small tool for plotting simple mathematical equations in the terminal. You can input an expression using 'x' as the variable, and it will generate a text-based graph using ASCII characters.

This is intended for quick checks or debugging. Sometimes you just need a fast visual of a function without opening a complex graphing application or writing a script. AsciiGraph provides that immediate feedback right in your command line.

It's a straightforward implementation, focusing on the core task of converting an equation into a visual representation. If you need to quickly verify the shape of a function or see how it behaves around a certain point, this tool can help.

We built this because we often find ourselves needing a rapid visual check of mathematical expressions during development and wanted a simple, terminal-based solution.
