You could also just swap the x- and y-axes. <br> <br> Martijn Frijlink<br> <br><b><i>"Dougherty, Michael" <michael.dougherty@swosu.edu></i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> Use the parametric plot and have the function be the y-value.
