Lattice Multiplication vs LearnAccounting

Lattice Multiplication helps students learn and practice the lattice multiplication method step by step. The app shows each part of the lattice multiplication process visually. Students first complete the multiplication steps and then add along the diagonals. Animated numbers move into the correct places, helping students understand how the method works. Lattice multiplication is a compact visual method for multiplying larger numbers. It is algorithmically equivalent to long multiplication and is also excellent times tables practice. Students can solve randomly generated problems or enter their own multiplication problems. Wired.com: “This was one form of multiplication that I’d never done before, but the app taught me very clearly. It makes multiplying large numbers easier, and allows you to see it all visually.” Teacher endorsement: “The math apps by Esa Helttula allow students to practice and reinforce the specific computation strategies taught in class, with as much or as little scaffolding as necessary. They also provide individualized feedback to each student, with an immediacy that is not always possible through pencil and paper practice.” — Rita Zeni, Ecole Sandy Hill Elementary, Abbotsford, BC, Canada Features: - Step-by-step lattice multiplication practice - Multiplicand can have up to 5 digits - Multiplier can have up to 3 digits - Randomly generated or manually entered problems - Current operation for each step can be hidden - Operands for the current operation can be highlighted - Three visual themes: black, gray, and gold - Adjustable animation speed - Different interfaces for iPhone and iPad The Lattice Multiplication Method Lattice multiplication is algorithmically equivalent to long multiplication. A lattice (a grid) guides the calculation. All the multiplications are done first and then the additions. The method was introduced to Europe in 1202 in Fibonacci's Liber Abaci. In this groundbreaking book Fibonacci presented many algorithms for working with Arabic numerals. Ancient Indians and Chinese originally invented some of the algorithms. Fibonacci presented both the current standard long multiplication and also an originally Indian method called lattice multiplication, which is faster and more compact for working with larger numbers.

New to accounting and not sure where to start? Wondering what to do first? Or are bad grades and the next exam already stressing you out? Whether you’re already in the middle of studying or just getting started – accounting can really push you to your limits. Hours of “learning” with almost no real progress, other subjects falling behind, and the fear of the next exam getting bigger instead of smaller. Your confidence drops – and in the worst case you might even feel like giving up. It doesn’t have to be that way. If you don’t understand accounting, the problem isn’t you. Very often it’s the way it’s taught: boring classes, confusing textbooks, weak explanations. And many schools and universities still rely on the same old textbooks and methods as years ago. No wonder it gets even more confusing! With LearnAccounting, you get exactly what you need: instant access to all the basics and more, targeted revision whenever you want, and a clear step-by-step learning path. No dead ends, no knowledge gaps – just real progress, even if your exam is right around the corner. We do things differently: Our own teaching approach finally makes accounting click – we explain it in a way you’re probably not used to from school or university. The chapters are structured so you can start from zero and follow the fastest possible learning path through the material. Short check-in questions in every chapter make sure you really get each step before you move on. No question marks left behind. That way, you’re not just memorising rules – you actually understand how double-entry bookkeeping works. Step by step, systematic, and with no prior knowledge required. After just a few minutes, you’ll start having your first “aha!” moments. Give it a try – the first 12 chapters are free! By the way: Freelancers and self-employed people who do their own bookkeeping benefit too – because they finally don’t just click through their software, but actually understand the business logic behind it. LearnAccounting guides you through, step by step: • The underlying business principles behind double-entry bookkeeping • What a balance sheet is and how business transactions change it • T-accounts and journal entries: from voucher or receipt to the correct posting • What “debit” and “credit” really mean • A simple memory trick to finally understand how debits and credits work – once and for all • Permanent (balance sheet) accounts • Owners’ (partners’) accounts • Revenue and expense (income) accounts • Profit-relevant transactions and depreciation • Balancing off accounts • The profit and loss account and year-end closing. Special topics: posting materials into stock or as expenses, materials requisition slips, debt capital and liabilities, payables and receivables, and the cash book. Plus: the basics of the three key financial statements – income statement, owners’ equity statement, and cash flow statement. Welcome to the accounting paradise for learners! Imagine walking into every exam relaxed and confident. No more stomach aches before financial accounting, no sleepless nights, no frustration with technical jargon. You finally see how everything fits together – and you don’t just scrape by, you actually understand accounting. Try the first 12 chapters completely free and see how clear and stress-free accounting can be. What are you waiting for? Start with LearnAccounting and finally get full clarity – exactly when you need it. Important note: This app teaches you the fundamentals of double-entry bookkeeping and gives you a basic understanding of financial statements, helping you prepare effectively for exams. For doing real-world bookkeeping in a company, you’ll need more advanced knowledge and formal training – otherwise, please consult a tax advisor or professional accountant.
