Discussion Establishing AI norms for R/Desmos

49 Upvotes

Hey y'all, in light of a few recent posts where people have used LLMs to varying degrees in their Desmos graphs, I think we should start a discussion about what AI norms we want to set as a community.

Here's my idea for a best practice:

  • AI disclosure: you should always disclose if and how you used AI in your graph
    • for example: "when I was stuck, I asked Claude to help me develop the parametric equations on lines 10 and 11"
    • for example: "I saw this cool geometric shape on wikipedia and asked ChatGPT to make most of the graph, then I adjusted the numbers a bit to make it look better"

it was fun but i never saw a proof because there has never been one or because i live under a rock probably, also would love to see this kind of challenge again some time, maybe even tougher u/mandelbrot4207

I have a student with extreme low vision. I have found reverse contrast and the bigger “A” option. But I haven’t found a way to make this keyboard bigger. Does anyone know how? Thank you!!!!

Discussion Inequalities painting where they can't?

4 Upvotes

Many fractal / recursion graphs posted in this sub appear to paint in the "No Floats Exist Here" zones near 0 (closer than minFloat, but not at 0) and near ±infinity (further than maxFloat, but not at infinity). This seems like it should be impossible.

This notebook methodically lays out inequality and limit combinations for several graph types, adapted from those previously posted in r/Desmos.

For the most part, all you have to do is press buttons or move a slider, maybe wait a few seconds, and compare to the "what I got" results.

I would love to know how it's possible for inequalities to paint in these zones.

I'm still new to desmos! I can do lots of problems, but these proved to be a challenge. I'd be really grateful if somebody could point out my mistakes to me!

I couldn't quite get the individual parts to rotate the right direction (which I imagine is a simple fix away) but the overall effect is still sorta there. https://www.desmos.com/calculator/xdktyomt9a

If you think the middle shape isn't weird, try moving one of the points around :P

In my lecture today, I learnt about curvature (as a value).

Naturally, the very first thing I did was apply it to desmos. Another tool added to my collection. 😆

I hope it helps someone else, too!

There might be some errors but this answer I got. And you can yell at me about the formatting all you want.

I saw another illusion today and desmosed it.

The dots are supposed to disappear when you aren't looking at them, but it's highly reliant on screen size.

Question How to share graphs

2 Upvotes

Ok so I’m a smart lazy person and my teachers allow us to use desmos so I do the normal thing and make a calculator in desmos to do all my work for me( if you are interested I made a parabola solver based on if you have a single point and the vertex) but I want my friends to have their own calculators but each of them to be separate so how could I share them
