Telling Mathematical Stories with Live Editing
Thomson, Ian
Australian Mathematics Teacher, v73 n3 p27-30 2017
Using "live editing" it is possible to write code that can be run a section at a time. This makes it easier to spot and correct errors. It can also be used to create an interactive mathematical story. This brief article shows how MATLAB software can be used to take the user on a mathematical journey with historical connections.
