Peer reviewedWagner, William J. – Mathematics Teacher, 1982
A program developed by a high school freshman is presented that plots unusual graphs on the screen of a TRS-80 computer. The view promoted is that teachers of advanced mathematics should not be surprised if new ways of looking at the subject come from students interacting with computers. (MP)
