number arithmetic
modulus
of a complex number - ExploreMath
Manipulate
a complex number z and examine its absolute value |z|. Use a ruler and
Pythagoras' theorem to determine |z|.

shoot
You are shown a complex number z
on the complex plane. Your task is to click (shoot) at the point representing
the value of the complex number w (w is given as a formula in z).

maps - Terence Tao
Investigate the functions:
f(z) = z, z+i, 2z, -z, iz, (1+i)z,
z2, 1/z, Re(z), x+2iy, zbar (conjugate), 9/zbar, exp(z), exp(1/z).
transformations
- R.F.Barrow
Investigate transformations of circles
under the functions:
f(z) = zbar (conjugate), sin(z),
cos(z), exp(z), 1/z, z+1/z
transformation
w = z + 1/z
powers
Explore the graphical representation
of z, z^1, z^2, ...
multi-valued
complex maps - Terence Tao
Investigate the functions:
f(z) = z^(1/2), z^(1/3), z^(1/4),
z^(1/5), z^(1/6)
SQRT
shoot
You are shown a complex number z
on the complex plane. Your task is to click (shoot) at the points representing
the (square, cubic, quartic, or quintic) roots of z.
polynomial
sweep
Illustrate the relation between
the coefficients of a polynomial and its geometric properties (graph and
roots).
coincidence
polyroots
A picture of the complex plane is
given with a certain number of marked points. Your task is to find a polynomial
having the marked points as roots. You can try several times and your best
reply will be taken into account to compute a score.
