Apple has started a Tiger-related developer mailing list for Quartz Composer which is a "new application/technology in Tiger that allows non-programers to develop graphics processing modules without writing a single line of code, and explore the visual technologies available in Mac OS X without needing to learn the application programming interface (API) for that technology."
A graphing calculator has been included in Mac OS X 10.4 and is called "Grapher". Only a small reference is made on this page describing it: "Create 2D and 3D graphs with this lovely full-featured equation grapher."
