Topic Review on "Title":

Graphing Aids:
A graphing calculator is any handheld device that allows the user to input equations in “y=” form and will output an image of the graph for that input.

CASs:
Software run on a computer that allows the user to input equations and will provide a graphical image for that input. 

Fixed Window:
Plotting graphs using a pre-selected range of x and y values.

Automatic Window:
