Java Components for Mathematics
 

A set of configurable applets that can be extensively customized without programming, using only applet params.  


This project was supported by a proof-of-concept-level grant from the National Science Foundation. THE "Java Components For Mathematics" project represents an effort to develop a framework of configurable mathematical software components written in the Java programming language.

Author of Java components:  David J. Eck * * Department of Mathematics and Computer Science - ** Hobart and William Smith Colleges * * Geneva, New York 14456, USA

Language(s): English.

Use:
  this Java components are meant to be used on instructional Web pages as interactive illustrations, special-purpose calculators, support for exercises, and so forth.
