MathMorphsRevival

Description

Project Goal:The MathMorphsRevival is project setup to collect MathMorphs and related projects, convert them, if possible, to Monticello format, and make them run on 3.9. Hopefully having those projects in Monticello format will facilitate community changes.Project History:MathMorphs and related projects are beautiful pieces of Mathematics and Physics run in Squeak. They have been created at the University of Buenos Aires, and the original web site isat UBA. The projects basis is MorphicWrappers, other projects are FunctionPlotters, LinearAlgebra, MetricSpaces, PhysicsMorphs, Fibonacci and others. For details see the above page. There used to be aWiki pagefor MorphicWrappers, but it is no longer available (crashed?). There is a MathMorphs site that is now missing the sar:here.In May, 2006 Lic. Edgar J. De Cleene suggestedon squeak-devto collect necessary changesets, make them run in latest Squeak, and save them for future in a community effort. Edgar also collected most of the changesets needed and put together functional 3.9 changesets, I started converting them to Monticello. Please see details of each MCZ file for history of it's creation. There are 2 Monticello Projects so far, more will be converted in the future.Documentation:MorphicWrappers provide underlying architecture for the rest of the MathMorphs. A guide to Morphic Wrappers is inMark Guzdial's Blue Squeak Book.To run something interestingly graphical, install FunctionPlotters and see examples below.More documentation and notes (third link has obligatory screenshots):UBARevival Community PageNotes or revival ProgressInstall (from SqueakSource or Squeakmap):Simply yellow-click on the Release and click "install". this will install following Packages:MorphicWrappers.mz.mczFunctions.mz.mczTo get "Aearial Typing" work (which is essentially ability to open a Balloon-workspace by just typing TAB), disable Preference named "tabAmongFields".Test Functions/FunctionPlotters:Type into workspace:XYPlotter example1
