High School A primitive function graphing tool

Click For Summary
The discussion highlights a simple graphing tool found online that utilizes the HTML5 <canvas> element to graph functions. While acknowledging that more advanced tools like Desmos exist, the tool's transparency allows for modifications tailored to specific needs. Users express interest in its potential applications, such as creating math animations similar to those produced by 3blue1brown's Manim. The simplicity of the tool may appeal to those looking for a customizable solution. Overall, it serves as a basic yet flexible option for function graphing.

Recently I found this online:
https://www.html5canvastutorials.com/labs/html5-canvas-graphing-an-equation/

It is a html page using the <canvas> element and it can graph functions.

Although much better versions of this is already everywhere(like desmos), it should still be useful considering you can see every detail of it, thus can be modified for specific uses:smile:

Maybe it can be used for making math animations like manim from 3blue1brown.
 

Thread 'Area of Overlapping Squares'

Here is a little puzzle from the book 100 Geometric Games by Pierre Berloquin. The side of a small square is one meter long and the side of a larger square one and a half meters long. One vertex of the large square is at the center of the small square. The side of the large square cuts two sides of the small square into one- third parts and two-thirds parts. What is the area where the squares overlap?
