Summary
math
Debian Jr. educational math
This metapackage will install educational math programs suitable for
children. Some of the packages use mathematics that is well beyond
the abilities of young children (e.g. fractals and cryptography), but
hopefully using these let them gain an appreciation of the beauty of
math from an early age. Other packages allow children to explore and
learn math concepts in an engaging, interactive way. Some packages
are more general, providing math activities as only one part of the
package, e.g. bsdgames includes "arithmetic" in addition to other
non-math games, and x11-apps provides xcalc.
Description
For a better overview of the project's availability as a Debian package, each head row has a color code according to this scheme:
If you discover a project which looks like a good candidate for Debian Junior
to you, or if you have prepared an unofficial Debian package, please do not hesitate to
send a description of that project to the Debian Junior mailing list
