I want to make a Graphing calculator..so, I should somehow implement a Graphics object into GUI. Does anyone have any ideas?
I researched a little, found a paintComponent method....dont know how it works or how to implement it...thanks a lot

add the component to BorderLayout.CENTER
Also, do not add unnecessary containers (in this case the extra JPanel).
