Derivative Matching Game

This matching game presents users with a game board showing graphs of functions on cards. The goal is to match the functions with their derivatives until there are no cards left on the board. Users may match functions using just their first derivatives or both first and second derivatives, and also control the number of matches on the board. There is a "more information" button on the game that will color the graphs to show where the graphs on the game board are positive, negative, increasing, decreasing, or concave up or down.
