The partition function for a harmonic oscillator is given by
Where To graph the partition function enter the parameter (i.e., T) and hit New Plot.
Up to 5 plots can be displayed at one time. The Clear button will remove all plots. To see the parameters
for each plot hit the Legend on/off button. The Redraw button will refresh the graph. This is useful when
the function domain (i.e., T) has been changed. To see the value of each plot at a given point, move your
cursor to the desired location then click and hold.
