ab: Summary: Two common examples of one-dimensional maps (the tent map and the
    logistic map) are generalized to cases where they have more than one
    control parameter. In the case of the tent map, this still allows the
    global Lyapunov exponent to be found analytically, and permits various
    properties of the resulting global Lyapunov exponents to be
    investigated using elementary calculus and the evaluation of certain
    products. A number of classroom exercises are given. (ERIC)
