Take a look at
http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/metafun-s.pdf
(or simply look for metapost anywhere else on the web).
This should suit all your needs (it can even solve linear equations) -
ask if you have any problems remaining.

PS 1: Regarding the output format - if you use (in plain metapost):
mpost filename
mptopdf filename
The output will be in .pdf. There's a file named filename.1, which is
essentially postscript, but will not be shown properly (labels). So it
is necessary to use an additional run of
pdftops filename
(http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf/)
(I can send a minimal example later.)
