Show Abacus Japanese
#3
Hi:

The abacus was used for about 2000 years ago.

All cultures have used, there are various types and shapes ...

For example: The Romans, Egyptians, Mayan, Japanese, Chinese, Indians, Arabic ....

The operation of this Japanese abacus, is not a binary system, a system of calculation is based on 6, using only: 0,1,2,3,4,5.

It is a system of calculation based on the numerical position, as at present.

You can do addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, square roots ...

It is a calculator 2000 years ago!

The people of antiquity, were not as ignorant as it may seem!

I have made this program simply out of curiosity graphic / math / history.

Greetings
