KnoxPackages contains many commands we have developed for teaching functions (precalculus), calculus, multivariable calculus, and linear algebra. Place the packages (.m suffix) in a folder called KnoxPackages in the Mathematica folder. The Calculus-Examples.ma and LinearAlgebra-Examples.ma Notebooks contain examples of how to use the commands. ;[s] 3:0,0;273,1;284,2;403,-1; 3:1,13,10,Times,0,14,0,0,0;1,13,10,Times,2,14,0,0,0;1,13,10,Times,0,14,0,0,0; :[font = text; inactive; preserveAspect] Updated and expanded versions of these packages are available from the author. The charge is $30.00 for a single copy. $20.00 per copy for 5 to 10 copies $15.00 per copy for 10 or more. :[font = text; inactive; preserveAspect; endGroup] We are very interested in your comments, good or bad.
