Funiter (short for FUNction ITERation) is an application developed for educational purposes as a laboratory, generating graphs of several types for iteration of real and complex functions, with comfortable switching between related types of graphs. Originally developed in the context of courses at the University of Nijmegen (Netherlands) for high-school students with a special interest in beta-studies. Ofcourse, the software can be used by anyone who is interested in dynamical systems. At the end of this documentation you will find a list with literature on the subject.

Requirements:

Funiter requires the following libraries:

• Allegro 4.2.0

The following libraries are optional:

• JPGalleg 2.5 (allows you to save images as .jpg).
