Furbles is the name of interactive mathematics software designed and written by Alec McEachran. It started as a small Macromedia Flash application, with few functions, but the idea of Furbles has remained the same.
Once a teacher at Hockerill Anglo-European College, McEachran had little time to work on his project. He was in charge of the college's website, he was one of few mathematics teachers and a boarding staff. He had much to do. Ultimately, he resigned from his position as a teacher and decided to work full-time with Furbles. Months later Furbles: Data Galore was finished and ready to be released.
