Math tables is perfect for any level of learning or any age of student. MathTables is configurable to quiz you with 12, 20 or 30 problems. All the problems are generated by the iPhone and randomized so there is a virtual unlimited set of possibilities. MathTables allows you to choose individual operation types from addition, subtraction, multiplication division, squares, cubes and square roots or a combination of the above. You can also provide a range of numbers (from -99 to 99) you want to work with. Parents you will find this feature invaluable for helping younger students who need to limit the scope of problems they are currently capable of handling. Additionally, MathTables has a timer thus allowing a single student the opportunity to see if he can improve on a previous time, or even challenge a friend to a "quiz-off". MathTables is a great brain exercise, use it a few minutes each day and watch your math improve over time.
