This is a breakthrough application that brings mathematics to life in a visually stunning way.
Apples powerful, intuitive touch interface makes it possible to see and interact with mathematics.
This app realizes all of that potential in a truly beautiful way that is essential for teachers, learners and researchers.
Math Flyer is so much more than "yet another graphing tool." Drawing on 15 years of experience teaching math concepts to math and science students, Shodor presents this app as the cleanest way to attach meaning to mathematical expressions.
For teachers, this is the right way to present graphs of functions so that students truly understand them.
For students, this is the best tool to use to really understand the meaning of the parts of a mathematical expression.
And for researchers, this provides a powerful way to visualize how varying the parameters of a function change its behavior.
