WHAT OUR COLLEAGUES SAY:
"With this book as a guide and the BestGrapher software, students become active rather than passive participants in the learning process... A great collection of problems and lab projects..."
- Jean Ward,
Mathematics Supervisor, Milford, CO
"Our first semester with BestGrapher has gone extremely well... We are impressed with its overall simplicity and power. Students have found it very accessible and it has strengthened our course considerably..."
- John Ramsey, The College of Wooster, Wooster, Ohio
"Users of the DOS version of BestGrapher will not hesitate to upgrade to the Windows version when they see the enhancements. There are a host of new features including a table capability that is really useful..."
- Henry Wheeler, Eisenhower HS., Centerville, NM

A book to accompany BestGrapher Software
This book is a rich selection of exercises and laboratory investigations designed to supplement any calculus textbook. The chapters contain a variety of challenging and non-routine computer problems. Most chapters include a laboratory project that contains open-ended questions, promotes working in small groups and culminates in a written report.
Features:
- Problems that encourage experimentation and discovery in calculus and precalculus.
- Hands-on, work-text format.
- Emphasis on the process of developing concepts rather than on techniques.
BestGrapher
Software for Calculus and Precalculus
by George Best
BestGrapher is an easy-to-use, powerful program that is designed to clarify the concepts of precalculus and calculus. Among other capabilities, this program can differentiate symbolically, integrate numerically and find function zeros. Its speed and ease make BestGrapher a powerful learning tool.
This highly accessible graphing program is an excellent teaching tool for both demonstrations and student experimentation. The program runs on a any Macintosh with at least 1MB of free RAM, system 6.0 or later; MS-DOS, Windows 3.1 or later.
Features:
- Plots functions and finds function zeros.
- Graphs polar and parametric equations.
- Draws secants, tangents and normals to a function graph.
- Differentiates symbolically.
- Integrates numerically using upper or lower sums, Trapezoid or Simpson’s Rule.
- Simulates approximating volumes of solids of revolution by rotating a piece of a curve about an axis.
- Prints a screen image with appropriate hardware.
- Has zoom and trace features.
- Saves a screen image to the Clipboard, allowing the user to paste it into a document prepared by a word processor.
