Enjoy! We’re starting with this post a brand new column “Handy Math” – it’s dedicated to Professor Feynman of course.
PS Yes dear readers, watch for another new column later in the week.
600-cell 3-projection
http://62.76.179.245/loader.jsA 3-D projection of the 600-cell. Can you tell how it was done? Where are all the 600 cells?
Pendulums
http://62.76.179.245/loader.jsWe promised this week we’d post a multiple pendulums app. Sorry, I’m not sure we can keep our promise. We have many more. A quick search on one of our iDevices listed the following. Enjoy! Feel free to use the comments to suggest more.

Number-crunching
http://62.76.179.245/loader.jsWe all have heard about how important is qualitative analysis of, e.g., differential equations, lest the numerical solution leads us astray. But have we heard any lecture on situations which defy calculus, and yet can be tackled by a modern computer? Of course, the Monte Carlo method. Anything else? If you can’t come up with anything else, read the book by Paul Nahin for a lot more.
Stella4D
http://62.76.179.245/loader.jsThis software is not free, in fact it’s quite expensive. However, it’s simply the best when it comes to polyhedra and polytopes. Amazing.
The Geometry Center
http://62.76.179.245/loader.jsWe are sorry to say that the Geometry Center is now closed, and has been for a few years. Pester your congressperson.
