The App provides a translucent calculator that slides in over the questions
The app records your progress, and it will tell you:
- What percentage of the element you have completed
- How many batches you have completed with no mistakes
What percentage of the element you have completed that day
- How much help was used to answer the question
- Which batches you have attempted and how you did for the last five attempts
- The date and time of when you last attempted the batch
- The time it took you to last complete the batch with no mistakes
- Your best time ever to complete the batch with no mistakes
- And it records whether you used the calculator to answer a batch
