Neat tricks
I suggest starring the ones youre most likely to need. The app taught me there are a lot more shortcuts to math than I expected.
Probably nice ...
Unfortunately the download is in Korean (?). Cant see how to switch it to another language. That way the app is useless for the majority of users.
Good for math
