Projects

KStars

claimed by KDE

KStars is a graphical desktop planetarium for KDE. It provides an accurate simulation of the night sky, as seen from any location on Earth, on any date. It has a host of tools for every astronomer and astronomy enthusiast!

Kalzium

claimed by KDE

Kalzium is an application which will show you some information about the periodic system of the elements. Therefore you could use it as an information database. It also includes an equation solver and 3D viewer for molecules.

KmPlot

claimed by KDE

KmPlot is a mathematical function plotter. It has a powerful parser built in. You can plot different functions simultaneously and combine their function terms to build new functions. KmPlot supports functions with parameters and functions in polar coordinates. Several grid modes are possible. Plots ... [More] may be printed with high precision in correct scale. Features * powerful mathematical parser * precise metric printing * different plot types (functions, parametric, polar) * highly configurable visual settings (plot line, axes, grid) * export to bitmap format (BMP and PNG) and scalable vector graphics (SVG) * save/load complete session in readable xml format * trace mode: cross hair following plot, coordinates shown in the status bar support zooming and more.

Kig

claimed by KDE

Kig is a program for exploring geometric constructions. It is meant as a better replacement for such free programs as KGeo, KSeg and Dr. Geo and commercial programs like Cabri. Kig is meant as a useful and powerful utility for high school students and teachers.

Step

claimed by KDE

Step is an interactive physical simulator. It works like this: you place some bodies on the scene, add some forces, such as gravity or springs, then click "Simulate" and Step shows you how your scene will evolve according to the laws of physics. You can change every property of bodies and ... [More] forces in your experiment (even during simulation) and see how this will change evolution of the experiment. With Step you can not only learn but feel how physics works! [Less]

KTurtle

claimed by KDE

KTurtle is an educational programming environment. KTurtle aims to make programming as easy and touchable as possible, and therefore can be used to teach kids the basics of math, geometry and... programming. The programming language used in KTurtle is loosly based on Logo. KTurtle allows, just like ... [More] some implementations of Logo, to translate the programming language (the commands, the documentation and the error messages) to native language of the programmer. Translating the programming language to the native language of the programmer is one of the many ways KTurtle tries to make learning to programming more simple. Other features to help to achieve this goal are: intuitive syntax highlighting, simple error messages, integrated canvas to make drawings on, integrated help function, ... [Less]

KAlgebra

claimed by KDE

KAlgebra is a calculator with symbolic and analysis features that lets you plot 2D and 3D functions as well as to easily calculate mathematical expressions.

Crispy Plotter

Crispy Plotter is a function graph plotter for mathematical functions, featuring high drawing speed and an intuitive interface that is fun to use.

Functy

Functy is an open-source interactive 3D graph drawing package. The emphasis for the application is to allow Cartesian, spherical and parametric curve functions to be plotted and altered quickly and easily. This immediacy and the vivid results are intended to promote fun exploration of 3D functions.

psypyr

The easiest way to get started with psypyr is to download one of the psypyr experiments: PyANT PyANT-I PyANT-Fish PyANT-I-Fish The general aim of the psypyr ("sigh-per") project are two-fold: to promote use of open source software solutions within experimental psychology; and to ... [More] promote programming expertise within experimental psychology. More specifically, this project seeks to develop a database of Python scripts for experiments in psychology with accompanying R scripts for data analysis, thereby providing examples of end-to-end open source science. Housing these scripts in a dynamic, community edited database, this project hopes to provide a collaborative learning environment with a focus on: Accuracy (of timing, stimulus presentation, etc.) Readability (including clear variable naming, thorough commenting and documentation) Minimal dependency (especially cross-platform compatibility) [Less]
