ShapeShifter is a mathematics program, written in Java, to draw graphs written in algebraic form. For example, equations can be typed in the form f(x) = a*x^b + sin ln (x/2). The parameters that are not the variable can then be adjusted dynamically to change the shape of the graph.

Inspired by Graphmatica, by KSoft, ShapeShifter adds the novel ability to change parameters on the fly. This should be particularly useful to study physical equations. However, due to its infancy, its robustness and feature list remains dwarfed by other non-open source products.

ShapeShifter is designed to be very user friendly and yet full of features. The latter is yet to be accomplished, but in due time. If you find the interface 'unfriendly', please feel free to tell us.

This program is open source and lisenced under the General Public Lisence (GPL), which means you are free to distribute, modify and redistribute the software. However, derivatives have to be GPLed too.

It is still under heavy development, but alpha version 0.7 is available for download. User feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Use it at your own risk. It is not yet stable!
