• Recent Additions: Find your name in the digits of pi! Or in e!. Or see a Javascript Countdown to Y2K... with a difference! Fully y2k compliant (still running and relevant). Or learn how to install libgmp version 2 under MS-DOS... [almost]
• See the DotPlacer Applet, which will help you learn about cubic splines, or polynomial interpolation, or the voronoi diagram, or many other mathematical constructions...
• Another applet, this time for reducing systems of polynomials!
• Search for prime numbers! I have placed a coordinated search for large prime numbers online. Feel free to browse! If you want to join in, be sure to read the Help and Introduction section.
• Speaking of Prime Numbers and Voronoi Diagrams, why not check out the Voronoi Diagram of the Ulam Prime Spiral?

• See why e^ix equals cosx+isinx or
• Why a second order ODE must have two independent solutions? . (Warning : Assumes some knowledge of calculus.)

Have fun!!

The picture above is an animation of what happens when we slice a four dimensional cube into thin cross-sections, moving from one corner to an opposite corner. If this makes no sense, try emailing me, and see if I can answer any questions you may have about it...
