A simple, and very cool, mayan calculator and decimal conversion app. Tap or drag a glyph onto another glyph in the glyph pad to combine them. Dots can be dragged to bars, and bars to dots. This glyph pad simplifies, yet enables the full range of glyphs from 0 to 19 available as a single glyph tile in the mayan number system. Want to convert digital to Mayan? Simply tap on the digital display (at the top), when the keyboard slides up enter the digital value. Tap Done to dismiss the keyboard and see the Mayan glyphs representation. The MayanMath engine portion of this app is now open sourced on Github as Montiel-Mobile/MayanMath. This is ideal for those who want to expand on it or use it for educational purposes. Please note that the code repository does not include the entire app, only the MayanMath class. Enjoy and share!
