Mathematical Animations
for your
Web Pages
Barbara K. D'Ambrosia
and
Carl R. Spitznagel

These pages illustrate techniques for creating mathematical animations for inclusion on your web pages.  Although our motivation was strictly to have some mathematical fun, some students have accused some of these animations of being instructive as well!  Each of the links below points to a page that contains an animation, accompanied by the Maple 8 code that was used to create it.  The code can be copied and pasted into your own copy of Maple, if you would like to reproduce or experiment with the images.  Most of the code will work with earlier releases of Maple, down to Maple V Release 5.
