“L. Prevett, the author of our upcoming Math Teachers Guide,
posted this message to the SEUL/edu mailing list:
using Linux in mathematics and science education. And I personally
think that programming mathematics is one of the tools that
teachers can use to teach mathematics. In order to be able to
write a program that will, say, solve a system of equations, a
student will have to learn an awful lot about the topic of systems
of equations.”
“Gravitational Particle Simulator (GPS) uses numerical methods to
simulate a particle system that obeys the gravitational laws of
motion. It has a nice user interface built with GTK+ and it uses
OpenGL (Mesa) to display the particle system. (GPL)

“Hanzi Master (“hanzim”) is a Chinese character learning-aid
program I’ve written. It is designed to help you memorize
characters by leading you to internalize their various
systematicities. It displays lists of characters with the same
radicals, same remaining parts, and same pronunciations, along with
pinyin pronunciations and lists of compounds. (GPL)
