Overview
A Graph Term is a special type of Term in which values are determined by a function from the current time (or from the value of another term) to real values. Graph Terms allow you to incorporate real-world data into your models. You can import data in CSV form, use that data to build a function, then use the function in models you build in Numerus.
You create a Graph Term by selecting the Graph Function option on the Term properties panel, and then clicking on Edit Graph Function to specify the function.
