Frequently Asked Questions


How does it work?

This app lets you calculate square roots to reasonable accuracy by using this method:


(x+c)^2=x^2+2xc+c^2

where c^2 is close to zero and can be dismissed. This method helps you to mentally calculate an answer out to two decimal places, close enough for most scientific research.

Why should I learn this?

Professor Jo Boaler of Stanford University says students learn math best when they work on problems they enjoy rather than exercises and drills they fear. By gamifying this process, you can learn skills that are useful in everyday life in addition to impressing your friends & colleagues.

Why is math important?

Mathematics is essential to our world, so mathematical knowledge can apply to many situations. The importance of math is not only crucial for scientists or engineers, but it helps to develop skills in order to analyze data and recognize patterns every day.
