Hello everybody,<br><br>I am trying to simulate the example "Or This A<sup>2</sup>+b<sup>2</sup>=c<sup>2" </sup>used by AK en the TED conference (8:44) but unfortunelly I am not arriving to the expected results. Does anybody know if the etoy project (I just need the example: A<sup>2</sup>+b<sup>2</sup>=c<sup>2</sup>, not the complete presentation) is available in the web?<br>
