Abstract: A series of six functions and a station command have been designed to enable Coursewriter II authors to use the plotting capability of the IBM instructional system in presenting course material. This capability has been augmented to include the ability to graph mathematical functions or other data on the 1510 terminal. Documentation of the Plot System is provided in this report, which is comprised of four sections. The Plot System User's Guide discusses usage and application rules for the Plot System, while the Programer's Guide contains the system logic, organization and installation procedures for use by systems programers. Section III presents a Tutorial for use with the Plot System demonstration program and the final part of the report consists of a Coursewriter II listing of the pilot system demonstration program.
