Hi,
You need to include the jmat.js file in an HTML file. Then you can use the javascript console to calculate things. I'm quite sure every browser has a JS console, but I can only describe how to use it in Chrome: load that HTML file with jmat.js in it, then press F12, and type the following to calculate (10^10)^^0.5:
Jmat.tetration(Math.pow(10, 10), 0.5).toString()
This answers:
100000
Does that seem plausible? The function has problems with all kinds of extreme values. The plot is in the region of -10 to 10 for x and y. Please do not use this for numerically very precise answers.
I was mostly interested in comments about the plot however. Also, if you have software to calculate an approximation of tetration of real x and real y, could you please make such a plot as well? It's a "complex domain plot" using hue to represent phase (Wikipedia has lots of this type of plot).
Thanks a lot!
