Visualization and Geometry: A Postscript

Abstract

We conclude with a brief chapter on visualization and geometry. It should be noted here that although Maple is capable of handling geometric problems, it is inherently static. There is a growing variety of “interactive geometry” packages such as Cinderella and GeoGebra that allow a much more dynamic exploration to take place.
