Java / JavaScript Applets

Java tested only in Internet Explorer. JavaScript should work in any browser, but test in Internet Explorer and Chromium (browsers installed on instructional lab computers).

Test each of the applets below AS THE STUDENT's USER. For JNLP be sure that "Always open files of this type" is selected. For other programs (like Fourier #1) the URL will need to be added to the Java Site Exceptions list before they can run (as of Java 8u45).
