If you're terrible at coming up with functions, the mod has a few to play around with. It's still Minecraft, so you can whack away at the equations until they crumble, and you can have clouds interfering with particularly wavy results. That means each number or mathematical symbol you select, you get it in block form, and you place it within the calculator's function, er, hole? Then you start graphing and watch as the game generates the result using blocks. It's a useable graphing calculator made by CommanderRedstone, capable of solving equations and plotting graphs, but in a Minecrafty way. I haven't needed to use a one of these for over 20 years, so this is pretty baffling to me. And if Minecraft is capable of running in-game PCs, then we're all just Creepers waiting to explode.

Below are some dazzlingly intricate pieces of computing, but rendered entirely inside Mojang's blocky world-builder. Like all conspiracy theorists, I have proof that you cannot dispute. Possibly one that's also inside Minecraft, and running some fancy shaders. The more I see of Minecraft, the more I'm convinced that we all live in a simulation.
