for MANY years. I am interested in a similar package. I am not
interested in Maple (we have it), Matlab , etc
What features resulted in me using this for 15 years?
- no manual required
- no programming required
- independent of textbook
- available in MAC format
- just type , point and click
This software was reviewed by Keith Devlin in 1990 after I gave a
brief demo. He said, and I still agree, that it was just what we need
in the classroom
No frills. Does about every (graphical ) thing you could want in an
intro DE course. VERY inexpensive. And anyone with a basic knowledge
of ODE's would not need assistance OR a manual.
It is outdated but I have found nothing close to it in simplicity and
still plenty powerful enough for an intro course
Any information on similar software would be greatly appreciated
Thank you
