MFC isn't part of standard C++.

The _standard_ C++ method to plot a sine wave is to
use ASCII artwork.

For example, use '*' as the point character.
I would create a vector of strings. Each string
represents the points in the horizontal direction.
The vector represents the vertical direction.

Hey, it may not be spectacular but it is portable
and doesn't depend on platform specifics of
untrustworthy mega-businesses.

The _standard_ C++ method to plot a sine wave is to
use ASCII artwork.

The pragmatic - as in PragProg - method to plot a sine wave with C++ is to
write ASCII output that can be understood by a plotting program, e.g. gnuplot,
or to write a SVG file that can be displayed by a sufficiently capable web
browser.

Such output can be made to look really nice, and you don't need any complicated
framework, whether from untrustworthy mega-businesses or other, more convenient,
sources.
