Valgetal and Algebra - One On One Software for Windows

Algebra - One On One
$14.99 - Sheppard Software

Algebra One on One is an educational game for those wanting a fun way to learn and practice Algebra. This program covers 21 functions which includes maximums, minimums, absolute values, averages, x/y, ax + b, axy + b, ax + by + c, squares, cubes, and so on. It has a practice and a game area.

It has a great help system that makes it easy for the beginner to do and understand algebra. It also has a "Einstein" level that even algebra experts will find fun and challenging. You can choose from a ten problem, a time trial, or a two-player game. High scores are saved and you are given a rank according to your score. The ranks are Novice, Learner, Veteran, Calculator, Math Pro, Math Whiz, Math Genius, and Einstein.

The practice menu lets you practice each function individually. The game menu lets you choose one function, two functions, and so on up to 21 functions. You can choose from calculate value (1 x and 1y value and the equation to solve), choose formula (you figure out the equation using the given x, y, and z values), or figure formula and calculate (you figure out the equation and solve for the missing z value).

If you get stuck trying to figure out what the function (equation) is a hint will be displayed. If you choose the wrong answer it will help you figure out the right one. The calculate option combined with the practice game enables students to practice solving the problems in the area they are having trouble with.

Factorizer
$19 - Hermetic Systems

Factorizer is a Windows program to find factors of numbers up to 2,147,483,646 and to find primes, pairs of primes and Palmen colors of numbers. Or in more detail, Factorizer may be used: (1) to get the prime decomposition of all numbers in a range of numbers, (2) to get all factors of a single number or all factors of all numbers in a range, (3) to find only the prime numbers in a range of numbers, (4) to find pairs of prime numbers (e.g. 107 and 109) in a certain range, (5) to count (without displaying) the prime numbers in a range of numbers, (6) to find Fermat and Mersenne primes less than 2,147,483,647, and (7) to find the Palmen color of a number or the colors of a range of numbers. In addition a "filter" condition may be set to allow examination of numbers with a constant offset from an arithmetical or a geometrical progression, e.g., just those numbers of the form 7*n - 12 or 10n + 2.

SoftStep
$99 - Algorithmic Arts

SoftStep is a modular MIDI step sequencer patterned after the modular analog step sequencers. The big ones, with lots of knobs and blinky lights. But SoftStep goes far beyond its step sequencer roots, to give you algorithmic composing tools of all kinds, including fractal, chaos, probability, and numerical based algorithms of virtually unlimited flexibility.

To create a MIDI composition with SoftStep you create the modules and connect them together to produce a MIDI data stream that drives any MIDI synthesizer, or sound card. It will make a standard MIDI file for your web page, to insert into your music notation sequencer, or just play with any MIDI file player.

You can begin with a simple sequence, and then repeat, modify or combine and recombine it with other sequences. Not only do you hear the changes instantly, you also see them. SoftStep modules are visually dynamic, with values changing, lights blinking, indicators flashing. This visual dynamic is what sets SoftStep apart from other modular algorithmic programs, that let you make the connections but otherwise give minimal visual feedback. With SoftStep, even large, complex patches are easy to follow because nearly every module gives an animated visual indication of its processes.

A review in Electronic Musician Magazine says: "A fascinating program from Algorithmic Arts, SoftStep responds to your playing in creative and spontaneous new ways. Play a major scale on your MIDI controller, and the software responds with an exotic microtonal cluster. Play a few more notes, and it responds with a soft, delayed version of the melody at a tempo determined by your playing Velocity. When you pause for more than a specified period, a long arpeggiated chord sounds. The harmony unfolds in response to biological information from genetic code, and a background rhythm responds to the patterns of a fractal image on the screen. Those are only some of the musical scenarios you can produce with SoftStep."
