FLASHMATH HELP AND INFO
The author of Flashmath is George Cole. It is written with Microsoft
Visual Basic. The object of the program is to help students memorize
certain math fundamentals, such as the multiplication tables.
Although there is no charge for Flashmath, the author hopes that any-
one using the program will send a note, or postcard with thoughts, sug-
gestions, or constructive criticisms. It can be a lonely job and any feed-
back is appreciated.
