M4C and MATLAB Instructions and Assignments
Instructions
Maplets for Calculus:
M4C assignments are done in lab and/or at home to prepare for the quiz in the following recitation.:
To access the Maplets for Calculus:
- Go to the Math Department MATH 152 Home Page and click on the Maplets link or go directly to http://m4c.math.tamu.edu/.
- Once there, click on the TAMU link at the top-right and log in using your NetID and password.
- Expand the desired section. Click on the name of the desired Maplet.
- The first Maplet will take longer to open because it needs to start the Java engine.
The Maplets require Maple on the client machine:
- Students can purchase Maple 15 from https://software.tamu.edu/ for $55.
- Students can access the M4C at any TAMU Open Access Lab.
- Students can remotely log into the TAMU Virtual Open Access Lab at https://voal.tamu.edu/ and access the M4C from there.
- Students can access the M4C at the Math Department Calclabs.
- Students can remotely log into the Math Department Calclabs using the NoMachine NX Client which can be downloaded at http://www.nomachine.com/download.php. Here is an Installation Video: Flash M4V (for Ipod/Iphone).
