Exercises

Create a new demo by following these steps:
- Add intervals x and y, each from -1 to 1 in 20 steps.
- Add variables a and b, each from -1 to 1 in 10 steps.
- Add a function f(x, y), and type in any expression for it.
- Add a 3D graph which shows the function graph of f(x, y) and plots the point (a, b, f(a, b)).
Create a demo which shows a graph of the function f (x) and also graphs the tangent line to f (x) at some point, x0.
Create a demo based on your favorite calculus topic.
