Generate data from those formulas (I like to do this with 
something like iota(0, 10, 0.05).map!(x => sqrt(x) / (1 + 
sin(x)^^2)) and then plot that.


For this part ggplotd does have a helper function:

http://blackedder.github.io/ggplotd/ggplotd/stat.html#statFunction

auto gg = statFunction(x => sqrt(x) / (1 +
  sin(x)^^2), 0.0, 10).geomLine().putIn(GGPlotD());

But I assumed he meant adding the formula onto the plot.


Yes I want adding the formula onto the plot. Thanks.

Hah, yes, I should have read the question better.


Rereading the question I am actually not sure which of us 
interpreted the question correctly :)


Do you support embedding outside images? When I wanted nice 
mathematical notation generated quickly in D I have used pyd 
to call matplotlib's builtin math rendering (much quicker than 
a full latex roundtrip).


You can draw onto any cairo surface, so this should be 
possible. You'd just need to figure out how to cast/convert a 
matplotlib image to a cairo image.


You just get back an alpha mask as an array of arrays, so it 
should be straightforward from there. What would be useful would 
be integration with ggplotd so it could be placed appropriately. 
Would be even better if e.g. the user could specify a function to 
render text and ggplotd would call it with tick label strings etc.

If you want to use actual latex you would need a program to 
convert it to code. Mathematica can convert latex to C, which 
would then be easy to port to D.


Either way, if I remember correctly there is a simple line plot 
example in ggplotd's README.md

You can't at the moment. Parsing latex equations is not a 
trivial task.


When I say you can't I meant that this is not explicitly 
supported by ggplotd.

One possible approach would be to convert part of the equations 
(greek alphabet etc.) to utf and use geomLabel to "simulate" 
sub/super script. One caveat with this is that I am not sure how 
well cairo(d) supports utf.
