it was a great time but no longer maintainable by c.Kleinhuis contact him for any data retrieval,
thanks and see you perhaps in 10 years again

There are some new forces trying to stimulate Math education in my home country and I had this idea to contribute:

Imagine a very simple matlab-like freeware application for generating images by equations. There would be some system functions like RGB-HSV-HST conversions, units vs pixel coordinates, draw line, draw circle, draw y=f(x), draw axes with tics and numbers, etc.
Obviously I don't want to step into Fractal software, or general Matlab/Octave/... territory. This should be a simple straight forward tool for math exploration.

Before I push this idea any further, I would like YOU to help me compile a library of samples to show this can be done and prime/high-school students can learn something from it. First I would like to scout the possibilities. Than I imagine the library would become official without the algorithms and students from all over the country could compete.
My immediate aim is for simple algorithms that produce eye-candy images.

Post your codes here. (Main equations only.) Thanks in advance.  wink

For educational and graphical programming, you should consider Processing:
http://processing.org/

Easy to get started with simple drawing, yet scales to complex stuff.
