About JSXGraph JSXGraph is a cross-browser library for interactive geometry,
function plotting, charting, and data visualization in a web browser.

   - Supported file formats: GEONExT <http://geonext.de/>,
Intergeo<http://i2geo.net/>
   - Experimental file formats: Geogebra <http://geogebra.org/>,
Cinderella<http://cinderella.de/>
   - Tailored "Mathlets" can be created using JavaScript
   - JSXGraph runs on practically every web browser starting from IE 6
   - JSXGraph runs on all major operating systems including MS Windows,
   Apple Mac OSX, Linux, iOS, Android.


>From a technical point of view, JSXGraph is implemented completely in
JavaScript and does not rely on any other library. JSXGraph uses a web
browser's SVG, VML, or canvas engine for graphics rendering. At the moment,
the size of the library is approximately 83 kByte.

Wassermann<http://did.mat.uni-bayreuth.de/%7Ealfred/home>
* is a mathematician at the University of Bayreuth. His mathematical
interests are divided between construction of combinatorial objects like
linear codes and combinatorial t-designs and the development of interactive
mathematics software for the world wide web.
