- aantthony 16y agoHello, I'm here now :) I didn't post this, so thanks for posting it anigbrowl.
- euroclydon 16y agoHey! My question is: Where did this come from? An academic project? And, what are your goals? Writing a CAS system in JS could be a gargantuan undertaking!
- aantthony 16y agoNot an academic project, but the idea came out of thinking of what I could do with the canvas element. Originally a CAS was a joke :) Goals - when it's finished I'm hoping for the following features: - Showing points for intercepts, maxima, and minima. - Calculating derivatives and integrals. - Plotting inequalities and implicit equations. - Solving differential equations (it would be great if it was with CAS, but that would be very difficult) Other ideas include: - Plotting in 3D - Visualisation of discrete data - maybe. I think it will be useful for places like schools where it's difficult to install software. Thanks for asking.
- euroclydon 16y agoI like the school idea. Maybe you can ping Khan (academy), for his interactive portion. I'm still fuzzy on the integrals and derivatives: are they for a predetermined set of functions?
