Michael Borcherds; Florian Derflinger; Zoltán Kovács; Ben North – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2025
We introduce the free web-app PyGgb -- the combination of the well-known programming language Python and the dynamic mathematics system GeoGebra. Motivated by the desire to provide an introduction to Python coding in the familiar context of mathematics and geometry, PyGgb allows GeoGebra constructions to be created using Python code. We outline…

Doehler, Kirsten; Taylor, Laura – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2015
This article is based on the experiences of two statistics professors who have taught students to write and effectively utilize code-based software in a college-level introductory statistics course. Advantages of using software and code-based software in this context are discussed. Suggestions are made on how to ease students into using code with…

Knight, D.G. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2008
The determination of bounds for A(n, d, w), the maximum possible number of binary vectors of length n, weight w, and pairwise Hamming distance no less than d, is a classic problem in coding theory. Such sets of vectors have many applications. A description is given of how the problem can be used in a first-year undergraduate computational…
