This directory contains only Mathomatic scripts. They include tests,
|
|
examples, short tutorials, and educational math toys.
|
|
|
|
To run all of the tests on a Unix compatible system
|
|
and check their output, type "./t".
|
|
|
|
To run a specific script, type "mathomatic script-name",
|
|
or "read script-name" from within Mathomatic.
|
|
|
|
To run a specific script, and create a complete HTML output file
|
|
from it, type "./demo script-name".
|
|
|
|
Look around and have fun! Feel free to contribute your Mathomatic scripts.
|
|
