- HYPERCARD CHAOS

- This is a Macintosh based introduction to the quantitative
- appreciation and analysis of chaos for scientists. It is aimed at
- those who have a working knowledge of the mathematics
- generally taught in the first few years of University study---in
- particular, differential equations and matrix eigenvalues and
- eigenvectors.
-
- • To run this introduction you will need: a Macintosh computer
- with the Hypercard application (of course); and with the font
- New century schoolbook included in the system (enclosed); but
- not with Macromaker in the system (and I have had trouble with
- multifinder). These last two problems are with the computer
- demonstrations which are compiled with a rather old Pascal
- compiler---other incompatibilities may exist which I am not yet
- aware of.
-
- • The first thing that must be done is to unstuff the files onto a
- hard disk using the application UnStuffIt (enclosed). Then load
- the font new century schoolbook into the system if it is not
- already there.
-
- • Then read the instuctions on use in the README file in the
- hyper-chaos folder.
