transform functions dynamically
- view and modify entire families of functions—polynomial, exponential, logistic, and more
- build parametric functions, and manipulate vectors and matrices
discover the relationship between rectangular and polar coordinates
- make complex numbers come alive on the coordinate plane
finish with a dynamic, visual introduction to the main concepts of calculus.
