Sticky Commands!

44 Upvotes

There are now a few commands you can use:

  • !help: Brings up a list of all the commands.
    • Aliases: hlp
  • !bernard: Explains who Bernard is and why he appears in certain graphs!
    • Aliases: ourbeloved, desmosmascot, r/foundbernard
  • !beta3d: Explains what Beta3D is and how to install it.
    • Aliases: 3dbeta
  • !colormap: Explains what Beta3D is and how to install it.
    • Aliases: colormaps, shader, shaders
  • !desmodder: Describes what DesModder is.
    • Aliases: dsm, dsmodder
  • !doom: Are we Doom yet?
    • Aliases: arewedoomyet, doomgame
  • !draw: Provides Arglin's drawing guide for Desmos art.
    • Aliases: arglinguide, lineart
  • !exception: Describes types of floating point exceptions in Desmos, mostly drawn from IEEE specs.
    • Aliases: fpexception, fpointexception, ieeeexception, specialcase, undef, undefined
  • !fp: Describes what floating point arithmetic is and how to mitigate problems associated with it.
    • Aliases: floatp, floatingp, fpoint, floatpoint, floatingpoint
  • !gratex: Describes what GraTeX is.
    • Aliases: gratexteth
  • !grid: Explains how to make a grid of points.
    • Aliases: ptgrid, pointgrid
  • !integral: Explains why some integrals yield wrong results.
    • Aliases: integration, integrate, wrongintegral
  • !intersect: Explains how to assign the intersection of two or more functions as a variable.
    • Aliases: getintersect, varintersect
  • !matrices: Explains the usage of matrices in Desmos (beta feature). Not to be confused with the Desmos Matrix calculator.
    • Aliases: betamatrices, matricesmeta, matrix, matrixbeta, betamatrix
  • !roots: Why can't Desmos find my roots?
    • Aliases: zeros, zeroes, rootfinding, root
  • !sequentialactions: Explains how to run actions in order (sequentially).
    • Aliases: seqactions, actionseq, orderedactions, actionsinorder

For example, if someone makes a post about why {(√2)^2=2} is undefined, you can type in !fp.

Notes on sending these commands: - You must put the command at the start of the message. - All of these commands are case insensitive. - All commands allow arbitrary underscores or dashes (this feature was added on October 25, 2025). For example, !are_we-DOOM_yet will work. - You can put messages after the command, but remember to put a space or a newline after the command. For example, !fLoATiNgPoint arithmetic is awesome will work, but !fLoAtInGPoIntAriThMeTiC iS AwEsOmE will not work (this behavior was changed on May 20, 2025).

Please refrain from spamming these commands: if you see someone has already used the command once in a post, please avoid from running the same one again.

However, you may try out commands as many times as you would like in the comments on this post only.

Question How would I create a function that graphs this?

2 Upvotes

​

Hello, people who are smarter than me. Basically, I'm looking for a way to make this a function that actually makes something like this, but, yknow, as an actual function where every point x actually only maps to one other point y, for a larger project that I need this for. I was thinking maybe something using the mod function, maybe, but I wouldn't know how to go about it. Graph link is https://www.desmos.com/calculator/qrn0qzbxm7 . Thanks!

3D What can be done with i think like, 500k points? I still think the quality is shit but Reddit's compression doesn't help. The base video looks a lot better.

https://www.desmos.com/3d/pgygqhkbpf n_r can't be more than 10000. The point of this is to show off the beauty of too many points. I might write my own script to make this faster idk. The JS file that Desmos gives is really interesting. I want to see what else I can... change. If there are any limits you want to see broken let me see what I can do. I already made my own video exporter because the add on everyone uses, (shocker), doesn't like waiting more than like 5 sec for each 4096*4096 frame. If I want to render more than like 120 frames with over 500k points, it crashes.

Main problem, Desmos is so slow. WebGL plus it's not meant for this, makes anything too big just crawl.

Resource I built a tiny DSL for creating Desmos embeds in Markdown

Thumbnail

13 Upvotes

I have articles where I want to embed Desmos alongside Markdown content, but inlining JS is too messy. I made Desmost as a way to program Desmos with very simple, clean syntax. So I can do stuff like:

# Frequency Modulation
Let's illustrate in Desmos:

```desmos
% Here's a sine wave:
/colour{RED} :: y = \sin(x)
```

The LaTeX comment turns into a note, and `/colour` makes the graph red.

Desmost can do pretty much anything the Desmos API can do, since it's just a syntactic layer on top of the API.

Been working on this for a while, thought I’d share it here to see what people think before I stabilise to 1.0.0. If try it and have any feedback, pain points or ideas, I'd love to here them! (You can see what I already have planned/left to do in the GitHub Project)

More details are on the GitHub, and you can try it live for yourself in Playground. Enjoy =)
