Howdy, I'm a HS math teacher and want to graph inequalities (e.g. shaded half-planes and intersections). I *thought* Poster 98-4.nb from the Wolfram education site would do the trick. Problem is, whenever I try to evaluate the notebook (Mathematica 2.2 non-FP for Macintosh), I get the following: Syntax::newl: The newline character after " \(y[x] \[Rule] " is understood as a multiplication operator. Syntax::sntufn: Invalid Unicode Full Name ShowTable[{k, \[ExponentialE]\^\(3 k\. Syntax::sntxf: " \" cannot be followed by "(\(ShowTable[{k, \[Expone<<29>>, 8\ Digits]; ". I also get error messages of this ilk w/ other downloaded notebooks. Since it already has an .nb extension, it should run 'stock out of the box', right? Any ideas on how to get this to work (or other inequality plotting packages/notebooks)? TIA, David
