'''CricketGraph''' was a graphic software program for the [Apple Macintosh](/source/Macintosh) developed by [Cricket Software](/source/Cricket_Software) (Jim Rafferty and Rich Norling) and sold until 1996<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=Cricket Graph 1.x (Mac) |url=https://winworldpc.com/product/cricket-graph/1x-mac |access-date=2026-04-21 |website=WinWorld |language=en}}</ref>. It could take tabulated data and create common business and statistics graphs such as bar chart, pie chart, scatter plots and radial plots<ref name=":0" />. These graphs could be saved in common image formats such as [PICT](/source/PICT) and [EPS](/source/Encapsulated_PostScript) and added to other documents. It did not have the same capabilities as a [spreadsheet](/source/spreadsheet).<ref>{{cite book | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=fjdw7irpuvsC | title=Mathematics for Physical Chemistry | publisher=Academic Press | author=Mortimer, Robert G. | year=1999 | pages=363| isbn=9780125083409 }}</ref>

==Competition==
The main [competitor](/source/competitor) was [Visual Business](/source/Visual_Business). Other competitors were the built-in graphing packages in [Microsoft Excel](/source/Microsoft_Excel), [Informix Wingz](/source/Informix_Wingz), and specialty statistics software such as [Systat](/source/SYSTAT_(statistics_package)).{{Citation needed|date=July 2023}}

Although this package was written cleanly enough to run on much later versions of [Classic Mac OS](/source/Classic_Mac_OS), the feature set was eventually superseded by packages such as [DataGraph](/source/DataGraph), [DeltaGraph](/source/DeltaGraph) and [KaleidaGraph](/source/KaleidaGraph).{{Citation needed|date=July 2023}}
