DataGraph is a graphing and data analysis software application for the macOS operating system, developed by Visual Data Tools in Chapel Hill, NC. DataGraph is used for creating publication quality graphics, particularly for research and science. [1] [2]

Visual Data Tools was founded in 2002. In 2005, Visual Data Tools was awarded an Apple Design award for the Best Mac OS X Scientific Computing Solution for DataTank. [3] In 2006, Visual Data Tools released DataGraph, initially called DataPlot. [4] In 2011, DataGraph was among the first applications available on the mac App store. [5]

Both DataTank and DataGraph were created by David Adalsteinsson, [4] a Professor of Mathematics at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. [6]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Visual programming language</span> Programming language written graphically by a user

In computing, a visual programming language, also known as diagrammatic programming, graphical programming or block coding, is a programming language that lets users create programs by manipulating program elements graphically rather than by specifying them textually. A VPL allows programming with visual expressions, spatial arrangements of text and graphic symbols, used either as elements of syntax or secondary notation. For example, many VPLs are based on the idea of "boxes and arrows", where boxes or other screen objects are treated as entities, connected by arrows, lines or arcs which represent relations. VPLs are generally the basis of Low-code development platforms.

Nodal is a generative software application for composing music. The software was produced at the Centre for Electronic Media Art (CEMA), Monash University, Australia. It uses a novel method for the notation and playing of MIDI based music. This method is based around the concept of a user-defined graph. The graph consists of nodes and edges. The composer interactively defines the graph, which is then traversed by any number of virtual players that play the musical events as they encounter them on the graph. The time taken by a player to travel from one node to another is based on the length of the edges that connect the nodes.
