McGill Biology 309: the logistic map



Initial value: R :
speed: Show t+N
# iterates: # transients:
show every 2nd iterate (status : ready)

usage:
the Initial value slider and text input is for specifying the initial condition.
the R slider controls R (between 1 and 4).
the speed slider controls how fast the graph plots.
the show t+N slider shows the x(t+2), x(t+3), and x(t+4) maps (keep at 0 for none).
the iterates slider controls how many iterates are plotted (10-500).
the transients slider controls how many iterates are initially plotted in gray (0-500).
the show every 2nd iterate checkbox shows only every second iterate (and plots x(t+1) as x(t+2)).
the go and stop usually buttons do what they should, if needed.
set speed to 0 if you want to set up several parameters before running... then make speed non-zero to go.
