);
Input
Description

scaleFactor

the scale factor applied to the coordinate system prior to drawing the axes

spacing

the spacing between tick marks / gridlines

axisColor

the color to draw the axes

gridColor

the color to draw the gridlines

labelColor

the color to draw the labels

labelSize

the size of the labels

axisThickness

the thickness to draw the axes

tickThickness

the thickness to draw the tick marks

gridThickness

the thickness to draw the gridlines

Description

This function draws x and y-axes with tick marks, labels, and gridlines. They are the standard cartesian coordinates
