Understand math and numbers better, whether it be for school or any other purpose. This app can help you with many numerical tasks including: • Factoring • Prime Factorization • Greatest common divisor • Finding prime numbers • Conversion of a decimal to a fraction • Simplification of Fractions • Fraction Arithmetic • Random Number Generation You can expect speed, some of the fastest known algorithms are used in the calculations and all of the operations are computed on your physical device. This takes off the time that would otherwise be used to communicate with servers through the internet. The one exception to this is the nth prime page which contacts a server to be able to quickly give you up to nearly the 10 trillionth prime number in just seconds.
The BALM Primer App

The BALM Lungs as Tort Law Primer is an innovative legal education mobile app that utilizes visual and tactile features to provide an introductory tutorial for students as well as lay persons. The Lungs as Tort Law Primer compares the lungs in the human body to tort law in the body of law. As in human physiology, the left side of the human body is analogous to the left side of the body of law and vice versa on the right. Like the study of human anatomy, the BALM provides the user with a progressively invasive exploration of the individuals, society, and body of law that constitute the body politic The Splash Screen introduces the user to the BALM’s brand. The Home Screen establishes the “Human Body as the Body of Law” metaphor to be the model’s functional framework. The Body Screen expands the metaphor to include society in general. The Region Screen reviews the individual and examines the sum of both human and legal body parts. The Lung Screen compares the specifically named organ within the organ systems of the human body to the legal organs operation within their systems in the body of law. Lastly, the Organ Screen portrays each section of human as well as legal organ parts. Blue tutorial bubbles appear on each screen to provide navigation. Tapping the white “x” in the upper corner of a screen or bubble removes the content. Tapping the blue tutorial bubbles progress the user through the displayed screen. Tap the figure once and italicized words appear above it. Tap any italicized words or terms and definitions appear. Tap the figure twice and the next screen displays. Tap the “X” on the upper right corner of the screen and the previous screen will display. Tapping “Reset” on the Region and Organ Screens restores the initially displayed screen. The “i” and “o” buttons at the bottom of all but the Splash Screen, provide definitions and direct access to the Organ Screen.
