About the JavaScript Activity.

The JavaScript Activity allows small JavaScript programs to be entered. These programs can then be run and the output displayed. The Book "An Introduction to Maths for Computing and IT Practitions" demonstrates several of the concepts using JavaScript. These examples can be accessed using the "Examples" tab.
