  1. Friendly reminder that we have a libre online graphing calculator at graph.equation.io !

    graph.equation.io/

    #math #graph #calculator #desmos

  2. I don't sew, but I did go down a rabbit hole learning about pattern drafting and couldn't help myself from trying this:
    desmos.com/geometry/1pjac70fx9

    #sewing #desmos

  3. As a high school math teacher, I have really enjoyed the functionality of Xournal++ for making tutorial videos using my graphics tablet and OBS Studio. Integrated LaTeX is great, but I still have a bit of a wishlist of features that I haven't found as plugins just yet:

    1. A proper function grapher. I used to create/import via graphfree.com, but with updates to that site it is not as user-friendly as it once was. Creating/importing from DESMOS or GeoGebra is...okay, but not as great for my use case as graphfree once was. Something more native to Xournal++ would be nice.

    2. A skeuomorphic compass tool (for Geometry construction demonstrations). I know that it does have a compass tool, but students need to see how this would work with the physical device - where to place the "pointy end" and "pencil end" of a physical compass. (my old promethean board software and some other website I can't recall had one, which was great!)

    Always looking to learn more about FOSS tools to improve my math teaching!

  4. Building a fully functional clicker game: shrinking targets, time ticking, randomization, score tracking; entirely inside the Desmos Graphing Calculator.

  5. #desmos is out of control. Here is my guide to all of the features I've found so far. You can make logic gates in there. You can do lists and iterate things:

    desmos.com/calculator/4xeklx0h

    They've added summation and it's a little strange sometimes how it works. This threw me. You set i to be a list and it give you three answers. It won't evaluate it if you don't set an upper bound.

    I'm excited but also a little horrified that this is the new SAT calculator. It's just so feature-rich.

  6. Fun! Well-known online #math #visualization utility #desmos doesn't have a way to save gifs, but someone created one

    jpanneton.dev/gifsmos-v/

    Which let's me share this animation of a #satellite #orbit thing I'm trying to figure out

    wait a minute...#mastodon doesn't support #svg??

    and neither #imagemagick nor #ffmpeg support converting animations directly???

    Ugh, I don't want to fight this battle today.

  7. I may have let things get a liiiiiiiiiittle out of hand when trying to handle the edge cases of this percentile function in #desmos.

  8. Never though noise was so overrated, we really just need a few sin waves...

  9. Waah 3D is such an incredible tool...

  10. Looking for a libre alternative to Desmos online graphing calculator? (desmos.com/calculator)

    I found grapk.tk!

    It used to be on graph.tk, but that address no longer works - yet the name of the project remains.

    So it's now here:
    graph.equation.io/

    Source on Github:
    github.com/aantthony/graph.tk
