Debian Junior Project
Summary
math
Debian Jr. educational math

This metapackage will install educational math programs suitable for children. Some of the packages use mathematics that is well beyond the abilities of young children (e.g. fractals and cryptography), but hopefully using these let them gain an appreciation of the beauty of math from an early age. Other packages allow children to explore and learn math concepts in an engaging, interactive way. Some packages are more general, providing math activities as only one part of the package, e.g. bsdgames includes "arithmetic" in addition to other non-math games, and x11-apps provides xcalc.

Description

For a better overview of the project's availability as a Debian package, each head row has a color code according to this scheme:

If you discover a project which looks like a good candidate for Debian Junior to you, or if you have prepared an unofficial Debian package, please do not hesitate to send a description of that project to the Debian Junior mailing list

XaoS позволяет масштабировать фрактал и перемещаться по нему в реальном времени. Она позволяет отображать анимированные фракталы в графическом, или даже текстовом режиме.

Она отображает множество Мандельброта (и многие другие фракталы) и позволяет вам плавно изменять масштаб просматриваемого фрагмента фрактала. Различные цветовые режимы предоставлены для точек как внутри, так и снаружи фрактального множества. Дополнительно предоставлено переключение между фракталами типа Жулиа и Мандельброта

Также есть режим автопилота, изменение палитры, сохранение изображения, функция инверсии фрактала, фильтры и встроенный туториал по фракталам.
