Ok a friend of mine is studying his masters in Elec Engineering. he's been handed an assignment to plot some graphs (sine/square/sawtooth etc)
Hes been tasked with coding it in C and run that on a HCS12(x) microcontroller.
Now he knows absoloutly nothing about programming outside of some hardware specific asm code and asked me to help him.
I said sure and ive now realised that i have no fucking clue how to output as a graph. i was hoping to make a function that handled the output to the console (ive got none of the specific hardware or tools hes using) then allow him to write up his own function to run the output on his hardware using whatever fucking libraries codewarrior needs.
so using a standard compiler on standard x86 hardware, how the hell do i output a graph to a console or window? anyone know of any libraries i should look into to handle graphics?
