MathMod 11.1

MathMod is a portable interactive plotting and graphing program for Windows, Linux, MacOSX and many other platforms. MathMod allows to plot 3D mathematical surfaces, described by implicit or parametric equations, and offers a very large database of model samples that can be generated with it. It's Free and Open Source under the terms of the GPL licence version 2 or later.

11.118 Jun 2021 03:22 major feature: Welcome to the realm of complex numbers with MathMod! Change-log for MathMod-11.1 (16/06/2021) 1) Support of graphing functions with complex numbers Z=u+iv in 3D and 4D spaces (demo scripts: "Complex3D_xx" and "Complex4D_Saddle") 2) Added support for HSV (hue, saturation, lightness) coloring model (script: "Complex_Domain_Coloring") 3) Texture definitions (RGB and HSV) for parametric surfaces can now be expressed as functions of complex numbers 4) Added a software implementation for the OpenGL variable gl_FrontFacing (fixed an issue with GPU drivers on MacOSX Catalina). The activation of this patch is available from mathmodconfig.js("OpenGlConfig"-- "GL_FrontFacingSupport"=false) or the GUI("Appearance"-- "OpenGL Front Surface Support") 5) Bug-fixes, code optimization and documentation update.

4.116 Mar 2016 06:08 major feature: Changelog for MathMod-4.1 (14/03/2016) 1) Add tools to create/edit/delete sliders without having to edit the script manually: see this youtube video https://youtu.be/FWazJIuC0zo 2) Localization Support for decimal separators as Comma (,) or Point (.) The decimal separator is set by the field "DotSymbol" in the "mathmoconfig.js" file. 3) By default MathMod will use the Fusion/Dark theme but you can define your own style/theme with the "mathmoconfig.js" file. Windows installer will also create a directory "MathMod-4.1(Win64)" in the Desktop folder (with three JSON files) and will use it as it's working directory so It can then be used, for example, to fine-tune MathMod's configuration. 4) Four new MathMod scripts, for a total of 341 integrated scripts. 5) Five Video Tutorials to quickly learn how to use some MathMod features. Videos available on MathMod's FaceBook page: https://www.facebook.com/MathMod-529510253833102/ and Youtube : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-NDhd94LLS0KFUdKnloj4w 6) Bug fix and code optimization: https://sourceforge.net/p/mathmod/branches/commit_browser All your comments and suggestions are welcome.
