HYPERCARD CHAOS A.J. Roberts Department of Applied Mathematics University of Adelaide © April 1991 This is a Macintosh based introduction to the quantitative appreciation and analysis of chaos for scientists. It is aimed at those who have a working knowledge of the mathematics generally taught in the first few years of University study---in particular, differential equations and matrix eigenvalues and eigenvectors. ¥ To run this introduction you will need: a Macintosh computer with the Hypercard application (of course); and with the font New century schoolbook included in the system (enclosed); but not with Macromaker in the system (and I have had trouble with multifinder). These last two problems are with the computer demonstrations which are compiled with a rather old Pascal compiler---other incompatibilities may exist which I am not yet aware of. ¥ The first thing that must be done is to unstuff the files onto a hard disk using the application UnStuffIt (enclosed). Then load the font new century schoolbook into the system if it is not already there. ¥ Then read the instuctions on use in the README file in the hyper-chaos folder.
