Stuck? You're one page away.
These guides are short. Find the step you are stuck on, fix it, and carry on with your experiment. If you are new to Plot45, start with the Plot guide, which follows a real pendulum experiment from the first stopwatch reading to the finished graph.
The Plot guide
Turn readings into a finished graph: repeated trials, calculated columns (your T² from raw times), error bars, and a best-fit line.
Read the Plot guide →The Sketch guide
Draw the setup diagram from real lab-equipment symbols, label it, and drop it straight into your report.
Read the Sketch guide →The Write guide
Real A4 pages, equations that look right, and your graphs, tables and sketches inserted as numbered figures.
Read the Write guide →The Workspace guide
Your files on every device, classes and student logins, assignments, hand-in and marking, and your plan settings.
