IFSoft (AKA: Project11)

The Java(tm) package edu.umn.geom.IFSoft (comprising the programs Fractalina and Franimate!) was written by Noah D. Goodman during the Geometry Center Summer Institute '96, for the Dynamical Systems and Technology Project at Boston University (headed by Bob DeVaney). These programs are educational software intended to help teach ideas about fractals to high school and middle school students.

The following pages describe the software in more detail, introduce the math behind the pictures, describe the programming in Java(tm), and give technical specifications.

See the pages made by the Dynamical Systems group at BU. (Includes educational materal.) Here.
