[comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d] iterated functions plotter

callahan@mimsy.umd.edu (Jack Callahan) (10/06/90)

I'm looking for a plotting package that will draw orbit
diagrams for iterated functions for viewing things like
bifurcations.  I heard of something called MAPPER, but
haven't be able to locate it.

Something else that would nice is a plotting package that
displays the function and then shows the behavior of the
iterated of a particular point (specified by the user).
It might even draw the lines from f(x) to the line x=y
back to f(x), etc. used to illustrate the effects of
attracting and repelling fixed points and their basins.

Thanks for any feedback.

BCNU,
