 * ''John Doe, Jane Deer'': '''Graphing antlers'''. The branching of the antlers of three year-old moose and cariboo form intricate mathematical patterns. We will produce an applet that illustrates the growth of these structures.  * ''Mclean Edwards, Scott Zhou'': '''BFGS Iterates'''. Plotting iterates, in an interactive manner, of the celebrated BFGS method applied to nonconvex and convex functions. Comparison of sage, jyscript/piscript, and our own python-based solutions.
 * ''Jakub Marecek'': '''Toy Integer Programming Solver'''. A very limited integer programming solver for instances with 3 variables, but complete with several primal heuristics in use today, and visualising the workings nicely. (Java & vtkHull?)
