What is a scatter plot generator?

A scatter plot generator is a visual representation of a set of values. After a person inputs x and y coordinate values, the scatter plot generator maps each point on a graph.

A scatter plot is a type of mathematical diagram that shows the relationship between variables. The values needed are taken from two lists. One list is the horizontal or X axis, called the domain or input. The other list is the vertical or Y axis, called the range or output. Each X value must be paired with a Y value. The scatter plot generator visualizes these points so that a person can interpret the relationship between X values and Y values.
