MacVenns is a Math/Logic learning game that instructs the user on what Venn
Diagrams are and how they are used to solve Set Theory problems. Some
problems are simple, some are pretty complex. I wrote MacVenns because it
seemed like a 'natural' for a Mac application. MacVenns is directed toward
students studying Set Theory, Boolean Logic, or Venn Diagrams (or persons
who enjoy a mental challenge). It is both fun and educational for all ages,
even small children (my six year old daughter enjoys it). There are only a
few basic concepts to learn, then the fun begins.

Venn Diagrams are used throughout educational systems. My daughter's first
grade class has a Venn Diagram (with chicks and ducks) on the wall. My
nephew studied them in his ninth grade class, my wife and I learned them in
a college computer logic course, my brother-in-law encountered them in the
military. If you're a student, have children, or would just like to try
something different, you should have MacVenns!

*** MacVenns requires a Mac with color monitor!

Distribution: Feel free to share this Demo with friends and/or your local
schools for them to try!
