Complex Analysis Applets are a suite of java applets typically used to illustrate various concepts in, you guessed it, Complex Analysis. Various applets include ShearTool (useful for shears), PolyTool (useful for visualizing harmonic mappings to polygons), StarTool (useful for visualizing harmonic mappings to star-shaped polygons), FractTool (useful for visualizing Mandelbrot-like and Julia-like functions), Real NewtTool and Complex NewtTool (graphs of the fractals arising from Newton's method), MinSurfTool (graphs various kinds of parametric and minimal surfaces), SchwarzTool (graphs the Schwarzian of a complex-valued function), and BlaschkeTool (graphs Moebius transformations and Blaschke products)
