Pk., MD 20742 Lines: 25 I'm looking for a plotting package that will draw orbit diagrams for iterated functions for viewing things like bifurcations. I heard of something called MAPPER, but haven't be able to locate it. Something else that would nice is a plotting package that displays the function and then shows the behavior of the iterated of a particular point (specified by the user). It might even draw the lines from f(x) to the line x=y back to f(x), etc. used to illustrate the effects of attracting and repelling fixed points and their basins. Thanks for any feedback.
