Description
Kig is an application for interactive geometry. It is intended to serve two purposes:

- to allow students to interactively explore mathematical figures and
concepts using the computer;
- to serve as a WYSIWYG tool for drawing mathematical figures and
including them in other documents.

With this program you can do geometry on a computer just like you would on a blackboard in a classroom. However, the program allows you to move and change parts of a geometrical drawing so that you can see how the other parts change as a result.

Kig supports loci and user-defined macros. It also supports imports and exports to/from foreign file formats including Cabri, Dr. Geo, KGeo, KSeg and XFig.

This package is part of KDE, as a component of the KDE education module. See the 'kde' and 'kdeedu' packages for more information.
