Logarithmic y-axis in plot #12

Closed neoneye closed 2 years ago

neoneye commented 2 years ago

Currently (25 dec 2021), the y-axis is linear. However many sequences grows exponential, so their beauty cannot be seen.

With a logarithmic y-axis, the exponential sequences can be visualized.

Question: What does the UI look like in other charts, that deal with similar data?

Question: Should this be a toggle button between linear and logarithmic?

Question: Should there be an auto mode, so the best visualization is automatically picked?

Question: Should the toggle button, be placed inside the Advanced mode UI?

OEIS has pinplots and scatter plots. It seems like they have some kind of auto detection for when to use log scale, see e.g. https://oeis.org/A000055/graph

I'm not sure how difficult and reliable such an auto detection would be. A toggle would always work I guess.

I think a proof of concept with auto detection is needed. Any ideas how to this can work?

neoneye commented 2 years ago

I have implemented it.

These looks good in logarithmic mode: https://loda-lang.org/edit/?oeis=276086 https://loda-lang.org/edit/?oeis=7318
