Some problems are simple, some are pretty complex. I wrote MacVenns because it seemed like a natural for a Mac application. MacVenns is directed toward students studying Set Theory, Boolean Logic, or Venn Diagrams (or persons who enjoy a mental challenge). It is both fun and educational for all ages, even small children (my six year old daughter enjoys it). There are only a few basic concepts to learn, then the fun begins. Venn Diagrams are used throughout educational systems.

The program is designed to give you interactive control over the parameters that determine the appearance of the picture. For example, you can change the viewpoint by just moving the mouse and observing the effect. You can also change the radius and color of groups of atoms by moving the mouse. MacAtoms lets you select atoms or groups of atoms using the usual point and click technique. The selected atoms can be moved independently of the other atoms. You can use this feature to move some atoms aside in order to see inside a structure. Or you can use it to make stereo pairs to help visualize things in depth.

It was originally written to fit some rate equations to chemical kinetics data. The popular commercial graphics packages allow you to fit linear, polynomial and logarithmic curves to data, but most packages dont let you specify your own equation. However MacCurveFit allows you to fit almost any equation you choose. The program also lets you directly manipulate the coefficients or constrain them to chosen values. It is very flexible in this regard and gives you control over which coefficients will be optimized and even which mathematical algorithm will be used.

Very briefly, an argument consists of one or more premises and one conclusion. A premise is a statement (a sentence that is either true or false) that is offered in support of the claim being made, which is the conclusion (which is also a sentence that is either true or false). A fallacy is, very generally, an error in reasoning. This differs from a factual error, which is simply being wrong about the facts. This is a program that looks at some very common fallacies and reasonings.

You have to set the amplitude of the speed (meter/sec) and its angle (degrees) by clicking on the boxes of the window (up for increasing the speed amplitude, down for decreasing the amplitude, clockwise for turning the initial amplitude clockwise, counterclockwise if you want to turn it to the opposite direction). You will see the initial speed on the diagram showed on the right of the window.

My mother asked me if she could enter them into her computer, thus allowing her to have them at her disposal and not having to re-write them for everyone. The Big Deal about this program is that you can enter your recipes into the cookbook the way they were meant to be entered, with fractions. You enter 2 3/4 cups AS 2 3/4 cups, not as 2.67 cups as most programs make you do. I didn't count how many recipes there are, but there's tons! The layout is easy to follow and beautiful!

You used your imagination to figure out what was something that a king uses every day. Well, instead of having to find objects from an arbitrarily drawn up list, you now have the opportunity to learn astrology by using the natural movement of the earth in relation to the planets to get a list of objects and events to find that are specific to *your exact location and time*. This is a game that I use to teach astrology. Try to find events, situations, and people that correspond to the signs and planets that are listed by this stack. Requires HyperCard.

A great deal of educational free/shareware for kids is available on the internet, with more appearing all the time. However, not all of it will meet the needs of individual parents and educators. Moreover, these sources are scattered in various locations. Parents and educators could more easily benefit from these freeware and shareware educational sources if they knew what they were looking for and where to find it. The purpose of this guide is to make educational free/shareware on the internet more accessible by reviewing recommended shareware sources, and showing where to find them. Text...

This means that SyMan is basically an algebraic word-processor. You can enter just about any algebraic expression, and then manipulate it in just about any way you please. For example, you can enter the equation 6x+7=-x+14 and eventually work it into the form x=1. SyMan takes care of moving all the symbols around correctly, and all you have to do is tell it to do things like add x, subtract 7, and divide 7. Yes, it does algebra! SyMan allow you to easily manipulate and explore mathematical expressions and concepts. This is an unregistered demo version.

Some really clever About boxes are mentioned in this list too, and I've also included a few interesting, useful, and little-known tips further down that are really handy to know. The list is getting so long, though, that I've been weeding out some of the trivial or very esoteric tricks. I'm only keeping the more interesting ones...

Wentian Li says that cellular automata are simple models to simulate complex behaviors of many degrees of freedom dynamical systems. Let me preface my next statement by saying that although we use the word simple, I am only scratching the surface of the field of cellular automata study. In laymen terms, it means the use of simple mathematical rules to simulate things that might occur at the cellular level. For the purpose of keeping the program simple, I am only going to look at one-dimensional cellular automata. There are of course, two and three-dimensional cellular automata but I wont get into it. Read the docs first!

It will also find a prime number larger than a given number and can produce a list of prime numbers larger than a given number. All results can be saved as a generic text file. PrimeFactor is designed to factor a number into its prime factors using a table of primes, then Fermat's method and brute force to complete the factorization if necessary. Please note that using this program to factor some numbers over about 15 digits can take hours (or days, or weeks!), so do not be alarmed if the progress bar does not seem to be doing anything at first for large numbers.

In a nutshell, RPN means you must enter the numbers that you want to operate on first, and then push the operation key. For instance, to calculate the value of (8-3)*4, the keys you would push would be 8, ENTER, 3, -, 4, *. You can change the default keymapping between the keyboard and the function keys on the calculator.

It provides an easy means for the instructor to answer questions one time that she knows the students will ask over and again each semester. I am further hopeful that it will simultaneously engage the student in a way they might not otherwise be engaged. With very little practice, the instructor should be able to create lessons including digital sound, interactive video, graphics and text, designed to provide collaborative support to the intermediate and beginning language student.
